First, check if your num lock is on when typing the password (if it 
contains numbers).

Then, check if caps lock is not accidentally on.

If that's still not working, here's a wild guess: this might be a 
keyboard layout issue.
Maybe during the install, your keyboard layout is set to querty, while 
during normal boot, it gets configured as azerty, or the other way around.

For testers, type your password as if you were on the other keyboard layout.


Hope any of these help.

Good luck,
