Start with removing the space after = in your set command, i.e. :

set SFDIR=C:\Csound\Waves
set SSDIR=C:\Csound\Samples
set SADIR=C:\Csound\Analyses

This issue has surfaced before, it must be documented incorrectly
somewhere.  I had the same problem initially.  Where did you find the
information?
