Batch file loop error

I have a dos batch file that I call from the windows startup folder. The batch file reads as follows:
subst x: d:\temp
When I run this batch file from the startup folder or manually it creates an endless loop and never completes the command. When I type the command by itself in a dos prompt it succeeds with no issues. Is there something I am missing? Is this something peculiar to the Windows 2000 cmd.exe? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Just a stab in the dark here - but try going into the properties of the batch file and then "Program" and click "close on exit" Furthermore, click on the "Misc" tab and uncheck "Warn if still active".
