Using ":help vimdiff" shows that vimdiff is equivalent to "vim -d".

Using gvim (which I recommend), you could start it at command prompt:

gvim -d file1 file2

Or, if you are already editing file2, you would enter:

:diffs file1

It is handy to do the last step in a new tab:

gvim file2
:tab sp
:vert diffs file1
