Based on your comments to other answers: This npm issue might be related to your problem, your npm installation might be outdated.

First of check whether you use a recent version of node. Then update npm with npm i -g npm as the issue suggests (near bottom). Then if ng is still not found follow the update instructions of @angular/cli:

npm uninstall -g @angular/cli
npm cache verify
# if npm version is < 5 then use 'npm cache clean'
npm install -g @angular/cli@latest
