Did you verify that the path in the batch file matches the file locations on your computer?????

yes it is calling out to a second minecrafdt launcher link named minecraft-1-5-2 and here is its content

java -XX:MaxPermSize=1024m -Xms512M -Xmx2G -jar Minecraft-1-5-2.exe

First try to make the first part in your batch file java.exe, if that doesn't work, then do the following.
Get into Control Panel, then System (shortcut: Windows key + Pause/Break button next to Scroll Lock). Advanced tab, Environment Variables, under System variables, hit New... put PATH for Variable name, and depending on whether you have 32 or 64 bit Java installed, C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin for 32 bit or C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin for 64 bit for the Variable value.

Find out where your Java is installed, it will either be in C:\Program Files\Java or C:\Program Files (x86)\Java by default, unless you changed it of course.
Go to Control Panel, then System, then Advanced system settings on the left had side. Advanced tab, Environment Variables... near the bottom. On the bottom half under System variables, hit the New... button.

If your Java is under Program Files, then fill the two boxes like:
PATH
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin

If your Java is under Program Files (x86), then enter the following into the fields:
PATH
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin

Hit OK, OK, OK, and then launch the batch file. The reason it isn't working is because the Java installer doesn't create the variable, therefore, command prompt doesn't know what Java is. So you're telling it to run Minecraft through Java, but it doesn't know where Java is.
