Click on the Start Orb and type "cmd" without the quotes into the Search
box. Now right-click on the result and choose "run elevated". The exact
terminology may be different; I'm not on Vista right now.

You will then be able to do ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew. Note
that there is a space between "ipconfig" and "/release".

For more information about running elevated, type that term into Help.
