No web gui access

[noobnonit]

Brand new install of Proxmox 7.3.1.
can login on the screen attached to the HP Elitedesk I am using, but cannot access the Web GUI on my laptop - it repeatedly tells me the password is wrong. Can also SSH into the HP but I guess no real need for that.
there is nothing else on the HP machine (although this Proxmox install was a new one, which I assume overwrites anything that was there before)
have seen multiple posts but not sure where my answer might really be.
I am absolutely not computer savvy, so anyone who is kind enough to try to help will need to walk me through step by step, using short words
if you are that person, then I am truly thankful to you

Hi,
make sure to use the correct keyboard layout and realm, e.g. Linux PAM standard authentication

Thank you for trying to help Chris.
Apologies in advance - this is probably going to be painful for you given my lack of computer knowledge.
So where so I go to get the correct layout and realm ?

The realm you will have to select from the drop down list in the WebUIs login form, the keyboard layout you will have to set on your client machine (probably is already what you want, just to be sure you were not using the incorrect layout).
