Welcome to the forums, disturbed2.

It sounds like Windows can't see the file path to that dll. You'd have to manually add the adbwinapi.dll via the Environmental Variables section of Advanced System Settings. Until you do that, any commands you attempt in the shell can't be "seen" by the OS.

Try this (carefully ;)):

Control Panel > System and Security > System > Advanced System Settings > Environmental Variables > System Variables > Path > Edit > (then enter C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools; and include that semi-colon and don't remove any of the other paths in there).

Now go back to your command shell. Your OS, Windows, will have gotten a bit "smarter" as to file paths entered in that shell. ;)
