How does the DOCTYPE declaration in your document
refer to the DocBook DTD?  If it is resolving
(either directly or through a catalog lookup) to
a pathname with a Windows drive letter, you will
get that error.  The DTD reference is treated as a URI,
and URIs can start with 'http:' or 'ftp:' or some
other protocol.  It thinks the drive letter is a
protocol.
