Start Up Failure, Requires Manual File Check
I use a Dell Pentium 4, and Mint 5. I have recently downloaded to burn and trial two OSs.
The start up went well, but started a disc check. I escaped this several times, and then it would not continue past a point of writing on the screen.
It says file check must be done manually, or press Control-D, it does not start and comes back to this screen. My password entry is ignored.
Also I saw a screen wit a report of an X-ORG, or X Server graphics error.
Can my Mint 5 CD fix this, or can I access old files from a fresh installation on another partition?
Memtest seems clear. Maybe a virus or hack.
Please advise.
