I have just installed RedHat Linux but now am stuck at the Login

screen. I tried using the "root" login name but the computer just

quickly stepped thru 3  "login incorrect" messages and goes back to

the login prompt again. I cannot get in.
 
Is it my keyboard, which is an enchanced one with the special Windows

key. Is it sending to many returns when I press the return button?
