Default DOS commands wont work


i only found this out recently but every command i type into the command prompt gives me an error says ":command: is not a recognised internal/external dos command" more or less thats what it tells me.Some examples are ping,flushdns,ipconfig,tasklist and i'm pretty sure even the basic commands are not working either.
Is my pc infected by some trojen(av is kis7 which is fully updated) thanx in advance for every bit of help guys
