I want to try running defrag.exe from the command console, but it said I needed to use an administrator command prompt. How do I access that? Also, I do not have vista configured so that there are multiple user accounts. It boots up and everyone uses the same thing. No multiple user accounts and no administrator accounts. Can I still use the administrator command prompt?

From the command prompt shortcut, right click and select run as. Select administrator and enter password.

Thank you SysLock! It worked! And no password was even necessary.
