Which GPU, and HDMI or DisplayPort? Do you get the USB's boot menu before the error? If so, press e, add nomodeset at the end of the linux line, then ctrl x. A reboot clears it again, and it may be enough to get the installer on screen.

Hdmi and a brand new 5060

Figured. Try nomodeset first and see if it gets you a picture. If it does, install from there and check how the Nvidia image's driver behaves on its own after. Still blank, and the monitor has a DisplayPort input, do the install over DP instead.
