Linux Mint bootloader does not see the hard drive, why?

I boot from a bootable Mint flash drive - I boot in compatible mode. I boot to an empty disk without anything. Since in normal mode the screen is dead. Prior to that, it was dead when booting Ubuntu. In compatible mode, the bootloader works, but when we come to disk partitioning (manual), the disk is not visible. The disk is formatted in ntfs mode. What to do - I do not understand?

I decided to install Ubuntu - in principle (if everything is fine), then this video is enough

But my screen went blank - here are the reasons (by default I assumed that ubuntu had the same)

I had an NVIDIA video card - accordingly, you need to use the nomodeset utility.
When loading the flash drive, I periodically pressed delete and pressed F6 in the menu that appeared and installed it. (All this is easily googled. It would seem that's all - but no, I downloaded it, but it doesn't load from the disk
anymore. The bootloader got lost somewhere - here's how to install it. Here you need to use the terminal (in Windows - the console - or the command line) ---- - help.ubuntu.ru/wiki/%D0%B2%D0%BE%D1%81%D1%81%D1%82...
At the same time, the screen is constantly dead - here you need to get into the settings and find - the screen lock - and cut it off (I had it set for 5 minutes)
Well, finally everything works well. Only the desktop is somehow strange. Then it dawned on me That I need to install a driver for the video card ------ Here's how it's done (Here again, the terminal (console) - https://linuxthebest.net/install-driver/
