toolbar:start() works fine for me on R13B03 on Windows even if the 
Erlang installation path contains spaces. You should check that you are 
able to launch wish84s independently.

Are you running the broker as an application or a service? What is the 
console output? Does %APPDATA%\RabbitMQ not contain anything at all? Do 
you get the same error when you use the new windows installer? (See
http://lists.rabbitmq.com/pipermail/rabbitmq-discuss/2011-February/011128.html 
)
