A google search for "windows 7 administrator command prompt" reveals:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc947813(v=ws.10).aspx
<http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc947813%28v=ws.10%29.aspx>

and

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/run-a-command-as-administrator-from-the-windows-vista-run-box/

both of which explain in detail how to open a command prompt as
administrator. It's similarly easy to find instructions on how to get to
the administrative tools in the control panel.

The best way to be less "clueless" - as you call yourself - about
computers is to actively learn by trying to research things when you run
into problems. These days Google will often find the answer if you try a
few different ways to ask the question.

Try re-reading Dave's blog post slowly. When you encounter something you
don't understand, look it up. It will take longer that way, but you will
learn more and most importantly you will be more able to solve your own
problems in future.
