Hi I have XP and mandrake 10 installed It worked fine for awhile but now that I updated my graphic card and CPU I cant start Mandrake. When I get to the Dual boot screen and choose Linux like I normally did I goes to a Dos like app and asks for a Login name then password, this never happened before any help? Thanks

...and what brand and model video card did you have before and now replaced it with? X is looking (configured for) the old card. if you significantly changed the card that you had, then you need to change the card value in X. You may need to do this from the command line if the card is much different, say replaced a NVIDIA card with an ATI card.
 
The other issue is if the card is compatible with Mandrake.

OP
my old card was an chaintech GeForce FX 5600 turbo. New one is a BFG 6800 GT. You think that is the issue.
