Need Help w/Install on Win98

I just completed my installation attempt and am having a problem.  I
followed
the install instructions at http://cl-cookbook.sourceforge.net/windows.html.

Everything seems to go well up to the point where I am told in Step#8 to
"Start CLISP by pressing "F5"."  I get the following error here

Starting clisp -ansi -I -q ...
ILISP V5.11.1  Use M-x ilisp-bug for problems and suggestions.
Bad command or file name^M

The mode line at the bottom at this point reads -
-1\**           *clisp-hs*        (ILISP
:exit)--L1--C0--All----------------------------------------

If I try to press on from here anyway (ignoring the error) and type the nest
step:

M-x ilisp-compile-inits

I get the error :    Wrong type argument: processp, nil

I am attaching my .emacs file and clisp.bat file here in case these would be
of any
help.  Thanks.

Regards,
Jeff Stephens
