I'm in a bit of a pickle here. I tried to install Linux Mint on my laptop and ended up deleting Windows in the process. Now, the installation has failed, and I can't boot into Linux Mint using my USB drive. Can anyone help me figure out how to fix this?

Here are a few things to check:
1. Did the installation process prompt you for the bootloader installation (usually called grub)?
2. Make sure that secure boot is off in your BIOS settings.
3. Verify that Linux is set as the default boot option in your BIOS.
Are you unable to boot from the USB installation media? What kind of error are you seeing? We need a bit more info to help you troubleshoot here!
You might want to look into the migration page on the wiki for some guidance. Also, try to verify the integrity of your ISO file after you've downloaded it. Just be sure to only use root when necessary and avoid third-party repositories!
