I have solved the issue for me, however, your millage may vary.

• boot to the linux mint version.
• Wait for the login screen and login.
• Get the error? Click ok.
• Get the black screen? Type Ctrl-Alt F1
• Get the prompt? Login with your name and password.
• sudo apt-get update
• sudo apt-get install nemo
• sudo apt-get install cinnamon
• reboot : sudo shutdown -r now
