If you're using Windows Vista or Windows 7, the easiest way is simply to type 'cmd' into the search box on the Start menu, then choose cmd.exe from the results.

If you have any older Windows, like Windows Xp, windows 98 etc.

You will have to search for it, click start, and look under accessories.

How can you access DOS while Windows XP SP2 is starting up?

Windows XP does not have 'proper' dos, but it does have a command prompt which is a lot like dos. You can access a DOS-like command prompt before booting Windows XP by first restarting your computer and before the Windows XP loading screen appears, repeatedly hit the 'F8' key on your keyboard. This will give you boot up options. One of them will be 'Safe Mode with Command Prompt'. This is the same command prompt that would appear if you hit [Windows]+[R] key in Windows and typed 'cmd' and then hit enter.
