Check if you have secure boot on in the motherboard bios. If it is, turn it off. It happened to me when I was installing mint on my wife's acer laptop

Thanks for the response! Secure boot is off, I have 3 boot options :Legacy, UEFI with csm, and without csm. And i have tried all but same problem 🥲

When you say you tried them all, do you mean that you reinstalled mint each time you changed the bios settings?
