SOLVED IT

Reinstalled Cinnamon desktop, removed XFCE and rebooted, it said the disk was full, deleted a few things and I'm now back on track

So I tried to install Unity3D and it didn't work out. Each time I started it it would crash. Anyways, I moved on and did some stuff on blender. I switch off my computer and restart it a little later, reach the login screen, type in my password, hit enter and after that... A black screen... I could still move my cursor but other than that, nothing. I tried using Xfce and Cinnamon and still nothing but I can still access TTY though... Any help?

Y u no work computer?

Ok I'll check it out. It'll most likely work as Mint is derived from Ubuntu

 

EDIT:

If I run "startx" in the tty I get "No protocol specified" for about 5 minutes before server shuts down
