IF you open a command prompt and type:
"C:\Program Files\TightVNC\tvnserver.exe"
Then the vnc server launches normally. However if you create a batch (.bat) script with the same line in then it launches but the batch script hangs.

Ok I discovered to launch it from a batch file you have to use this (the double quotes are vital)
start "" "C:\Program Files\TightVNC\tvnserver.exe"
