Let me guess: you are using a graphic login. Not a question. I'm sure of
it.

You have 2 choices.

a) reinstall and don't choose a graphic login. Login as root afterward
and run Xconfigurator to fix your graphic setup. You can get to X by
typing "startx" without quotes. If it fails. try asking again with
information about graphics card, monitor, etc.

b) boot into linux with single user mode. If you installed grub instead
of lilo, you'll need somebody else to help on how to get single user
mode. I use lilo. If in lilo, hit CTRL-X at the bootup screen. At the
prompt type "linux single" with no quotes. After it stops booting,type
"init 3" (noquotes to get services running that are needed to test X.
Login as root and type "Xconfigurator" (noquotes) and setup your
graphics. Use "startx" (noquotes) to test the configuration. If this
continues to fail, see the last sentence of option a) above.
