When I boot in rescue mode it asks for the admin password or Ctrl D.
Good. You must type the root password to start a shell. Then what
happens if you run 'startx' in the shell ? It should launch a graphic
environment. If it does not hang with a blinking cursor again, then the
issue could be with the desktop manager.
but after it reboots from that it still stops at the blinking - in the
upper left hand corner. It goes no where from there and none of the
keys work so I have to hit ctrl-alt-del to reboot it.
Can't you switch back to a text console with Ctrl+Alt+F2 ?
I also have checked the net and no one seems to have an option for what
to do.
If it is a graphic issue, you may want to try to add "nomodeset" to the
kernel command line in the boot menu.
