Help getting AUCTeX working under Windows

I can't be the only one having trouble getting AUCTeX working under windows.

I am running GNU Emacs 24.3(freshly installed, with no additions or modifications) in windows 7 with MikTeX 2.9 (not ideal, but I can't change the operating system on this machine...)
