This is *very* close to what I use with Windows XP (actually I use this
for file types so that I can right click and run a PHP file on the
command line).

cmd /K "C:\php\php.exe -f %1"

The %1 is a variable that gets replaced.  If you set this up for the
file type then the %1 is the name of the file.

So to apply this knowledge to scheduled tasks, you can do:
cmd /K "C:\php\php.exe -f C:\path\to\your\file.php"

Agreed... it is much easier to manage it this way although it is
*possible* to use the command "runas" to execute PHP as a different user.

For help on these commands, just use:
cmd /?
runas /?
