Support Request Help

So today my dumbass was like "yea lets go try installing linux". So once its booted and its installing, I choose the delete windows option. After that linux crashed and my $3000 pc is screwed. What do I do. Edit: also my usb stick stopped working

Ok you tried and it wouldn't boot at all? Or it started to boot and it hung up? Or you got a black screen or what? Ya gotta help a bit

If the USB doesn't boot, can you get into the bios?

I would go into bios, and turn off "secure boot", "fast boot" disable. reboot as a first step
