I had the exact same problem. Seems all the paths in the openAFS Windows
executables are screwy. I had to recompile from source to get it to work
correctly.
If you'd like a 1.2.7 version that will at least install and start
correctly, you can download the one I compiled at:

However, I am a unix guy myself, so can't really help much on the
windows side...
