[Durham] Help

[A Pearson]

Hi Dougie

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.
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.

Thanks
Alan

    Installed Mint OK but it will not recognise password or username which I had installed a few minutes earlier.
    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.

  Out of interest, what happens if you press Ctrl-Alt-F1? If you get a terminal screen are you able to login? Just curious if it's some desktop weirdness.
