When the blue screen appeared, and nothing else, I wnet out for coffee and on my return there was a login screen so I logged in and seet up FF, TB etc. Hoping things were OK, I shut down, and next day I started up and never let me log in even today, after waiting an hour. Guess this isn't much help but it is how I logged in that one time. Bob
