Can't reinstall Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.3 after changing drives to GPT and booting UEFI

[Rocketing-warp9]

This does leave me curious.. Off the wall, but could be a good starting point to getting mint installed.
(Please bear note- I'm just throwing ideas at the wall. I don't know if this will work or not)
If you have a USB 2.0 Port, that might help too-
If you can maybe try a different distro with GRUB (ex-Ubuntu) and see if it hits the same stop.
Debian with a .netnstall might work out here as well, just as a starting point.
If you type "yes" on the prompt above, see what that does next (If you have access, please Plug in an ethernet cable)

I put Fedora Workstation 44 Live ISO on the Ventoy flash drive. It took less than one minute to load to the live desktop. After about 20 minutes the computer froze. Then it hit me.

The CPU is using the stock cooler which is inadequate. I reduced the power setting in Windows 10 so that it doesn't run too hot. I also monitor the temperature at all times using Core Temp.

I wasn't thinking about that when I was trying to boot Linux Mint. Maybe it was overheating an malfunctioning. Fedora Live booted but locked up after a time. I need to apologize for not mentioning this in the beginning.

I ordered a much better CPU cooler on June 28 on Ebay. Unfortunately, the seller took my money and ghosted me. Ebay said to contact them tomorrow July 15. Hopefully, they will make sure I get my money back. I ordered a different CPU cooler from a different seller. I should be getting it on Friday. Since hardware for old computers like this are usually used I hope it works out.

Here are a couple screenshots from Fedora Live. Note: I took them within Fedora and copied them to a different flash drive.
