Try using a different graphics driver. Go to the Driver utility and run it. I think you can find it in Settings in Mint, although I'm not using Mint these days so you may need to look around for it. It will take a minute to run. It will tell you what driver you are running, and you can switch to a different one.

It's also a good idea to join the mint Forum. You will get a lot more help there.

Good luck!

Did you run things in live mode before installing? Doing so might help you detect such issues in advance.

Try a less graphically intensive desktop, such as XFCE.

Your X11 probably needs to be reset or reconfigured.

Basically a matter of stopping current desktop server reconfigure then restart.

Ctlr+Alt+F2 into terminal
sudo /etc/init.d/[your-desktop-enviroment] stop
Your old X11 config file should reside at /home/[username]/xorg.conf
Back it up with sudo cp /home/[username]/xorg.conf /home/[username]/xorg.conf.bak
Reconfigure xorg server with: sudo Xorg -configure
Start desktop with sudo /etc/init.d/[your-desktop-enviroment] start

Note: I do not use mint and it's a good idea to follow the suggestion about verifying your driver.
