Hi, at the login screen try to do this:
click on the icon beside your name and select Ubuntu 2D, like you can see here:

then insert your password and login. Maybe works.

Please make sure the system is up-to-date.
Open a terminal: ctrl+alt+t
Enter:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo reboot

In case post error messages.
