A friend has found that on booting he now gets a DOS site
How can he change to windows? Is there a DOS command to do this?
I think it was after he used Partition Commander

Sounds like your friend messed with something they did not understand and
changed it so they are now booting to a different partition than the one
Windows is installed upon (Windows XP is not DOS based.)

Partition Commander is probably the cause. It seems to have a option
to created a DOS 'partition' to install its own multi-boot menu
options.

We assume he gets a DOS prompt (not "DOS site.")
He should try keying one word
exit
If Windows has been loaded, this DOS command exits
the DOS window to display parent Windows.
