on a command line to execute a windows program.

You go in the "file" menu, and choose settings, configuration, or
something like that. I can't exactly remember.

If you just want a full-screen command prompt, you hit ctrl+alt+F1 when
X is running.
If you don't want linux to automatically start X, you type :
        linux init 3
at the lilo boot prompt.

Have a look at http://www.mandrakeuser.org . You should find all the
informations a newbie need to be familiar with a linux environnement.
