Yes. DUI's from the past will count against you for enhancing sentencing in Colorado. Every additional DUI will increase the sentence if you are convicted in Colorado.

And what happened? Were the barges dropped? If so, you can expunge the arrest from your record. If not, you need a lawyer to assert your defense.

Is it a conviction if charges are dismissed?

This sounds like you accepted a deferred judgment and sentence from the court. A deferred judgment allows a defendant to plead guilty, complete some request of the prosecution and ultimately have the case dismissed. For most purposes, you may be able to state you do not have a conviction on your record. However, Colorado will view this still as a conviction until it is sealed from your record. Once it is sealed, you can legally claim that the case never existed.
