No Windows key and Vista

[koster]

Windows Vista doesn't by default have Run on the start menu, you have to do Windows key + R. How do you do it if you don't have a Windows key?

open a command prompt .... run .... cmd ..... oh yes .....

you can run most commands from a prompt ... create a shortcut on the desktop to cmd ... type the comand there

or right click on the bar at the bottom of the screen select properties click on the start menu tab and then put a tick in the box that says "classic start menu".

it will change your entire start menu to the old style one complete with run.

if you don't like it like that simply repeat above and put the tick back in "start menu" restore it to how it is now.

Or right-click on start button choose properties , leave 'start menu' checked then 'customize' scroll down check 'run command ' . It will now be added to the start menu

either it was already there in ultimate - I never used it on that machine - or I did what you said and just forgot ... either way ... good catch ....
