<DIV>Hi Dougie</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for the suggestion it did get me into a text screen similar to
a terminal where I could insert my username but refused to accept entries
against the password so I got no further.</DIV>
<DIV>I also tried using F2 in that combination with the same results. I have got
it going now from a new install again as you will see from my other
replies.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks</DIV>
<DIV>Alan</DIV>

<DIV>Installed Mint OK but it will not recognise password or username which
I had installed a few minutes earlier.</DIV>
<DIV>Typing them in correctly with correct case several times just
gave the message that either wrong names had been entered or the case
was wrong.</DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>Out of interest, what happens if you
press Ctrl-Alt-F1? If you get a terminal screen are you able to login? Just
