Hey Jacob, be cool.
when appear text-based screen with a low-res picture of linux just type:
login# root
password# [here you type your password]
and next you go to your user account please type :
exit
login# [your user login name]
password#[ your user password]
NB: please careful about NUMLOCK & CAPSLOCK keys .
I hope you will be success.
enjoy linux.
