You're getting this error because PHP is looking for the /tmp dir on your machine, which at this point it doesnt look like its there.
You need to create a tmp directory and set your php.ini to point to this dir.

edit your php.ini
changing this:

[ Session ]
session.save_path =/tmp

to this something like this:

[ Session ]
session.save_path = e:\webdocs\tmp

or where ever you want the tmp to be saved at for the session files.
