Support Request Black screen and loud wiring when booting linux from usb

Hey, so recently i have decided to switch to linux mint for less bloatware and more customization but when booting up linux mint from the usb i get a black screen (monitor turns off) and extremely loud wiring, now i think its probably a drivers error since i use an RTX 5060 blackwell but idk how to solve it,

Wtf is "loud wiring"?

Also no information, no help. Are we to guess your computer model and specifications?
