Hi! :)
I installed one week ago Linux Lite 5.2 from ISO (Upgrade, is a different story), on a Dell Inspiron N5030 machine. The only Dell Specs difference is that I replaced the HDD with a SSD. The rest, is the same as on Dell site.
I had trouble launching the installer. Then I thought maybe I wrote the USB the wrong way (something went sideways) so, I just rewrote the USB and it worked.
Also, the above solution (md5 checksum) might prove to solve the problem.
Sometimes, due to bandwidth resasons, the image might get damaged. Since I only have a classic "wired" connection from the wall to computer (the rest is optical, including the router) and the corresponding WiFi, I never had this kind of trouble, but years back, when I was on low bandwidth, I encountered this kind of trouble.
So my idea is to check both ways: ISO integrity and the USB writing process.
Specifically for the display problem (assuming the others are OK), I guess you need to start with a kernel parameter (I forgot the name, I think it is nomodeset) to avoid loading the Intel drivers, until installation is done. Then check the proprietary drivers, then install them from the Additional Drivers Tab.
From what I saw in the image, this might be the issue.
Check the "FORCE VESA" keyphrase, see what you get.

If I go back to boot options and select Recovery, Select Resume in Recovery I could boot into normal Desktop of Linux Lite 5.0.

I tried normal boot in persistent as well as Live only options once again and got the same Jumbled Display.
