type Win+r, then launch cmd.exe.
cd to your aspell dir, then type aspell. It should run like that.

you need to tell emacs that your spelling program is aspell not
ispell.
Richard Riley gave you this:

however, i cant' find the var ispell-program-name in my emacs. Don't
want to spend time on this but there a var somewhere you need to set
about that. Best to read the emacs's doc on the spelling section for
good detail ... you know how to use emacs's info doc?
seems to me you are new to emacs?
if so, i'd suggest you download emacsW32 to begin with because that
distribution made things much easier for window users.
