But YOU aren't in C:\Rockbox.

You have to run the command IN the directory. You're running the command in C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator

Change directories using the "CD" command. There are many command prompt tutorials on the internet if you need further help with that.

That's why the manual tells you that you need to change directories.
