that sounds hilarious
remake your usb stick live installer as shown here: #1295816480256163892 message
VERIFY the ISO checksum on the flashdrive itself as shown here: #1367031929999986698 message
against the sha256 sum on linuxmint website near the download area mirrors. checksum must match.
boot the usb in normal mode once verified, up to the Mint live desktop. completely clean wipe your hdd or ssd as shown here #1349142711898476657 message with gparted.
make sure to choose proper drive to wipe, of course. then run the installer icon on desktop
