I tried that and still nothing. I loaded up the 64bit version if that helps. And did the full install rather than the live CD. Also I am loading the image to a external hard drive. When it comes to the part of partition the hard drive I select the full guided, then all files to one for beginners, then at the summery page I just hit finish and install. I do select the grub for new system. And I did not select the network mirror this time. Still can not log on to the system. I have tried with system default, gnome, and classic.
