I'm assuming you're using the version from octave.sf.net.
I have no problem with this code (on a machine with lots of
memory with that version.

To be able to see the error, find the file
    C:\Program Files\GNU Octave\bin\start_octave.sh
add the line
    cmd /c pause
at the end. (This will work in Win2k/WinNT/WinXP)
