Is the computer an old windows machine? I had a Lenovo laptop a while back that was a win 10 machine that I ran DBAN on then threw Mint on. After about a year of slow but solid performance I started having Grub issues and I just got sick of debugging it and gave up on it since it was just a hand-me-down and I prefer my desktop.

    The previous windows install is the only thing I can see as the common denominator, I've installed Mint on three computers that started with no OS, and the Lenovo that was a Win 10 computer that I now have issues with.

    Sorry I don't have any real answers, I wish I did since I'm having issues with a laptop too.
