I would've went back to windows xp or 7 but installing linux mint seemed much easier.

I wouldn’t recommend XP unless you either really like the goofy Fischer price Luna theme or if you have old hardware
If you’re locked to Vista for some reason you can use Vista extended kernel (x64 only)

The attempt to mount a file system with type vfat in SCSI4 (0,0,0), partition #1 (sda) at /boot/efi failed.

You may resume partitioning from the partitioning menu.

It still appears to be downloading but has very clearly stopped there

That’s not a download. It’s trying to format a partition on your disk, the EFI partition

Idk why it would do that unless maybe the EFI wasn’t formatted properly maybe just start over the whole installation
Are you trying to dualboot?

I'm not dualbooting. It already wiped my old os and everything else. What is the EFI? I might be able to figure out what I did wrong if I truly understood why is isn't progressing here.

The EFI partition is a FAT partition on your hdd where the bootloader is kept.

I'm booting from a usb and I'm installing onto an ssd. Don't know if any of that matters. I think I'll just wipe the flashdrive and do it all over.

Maybe once I've learned enough about Linux I'll try those out. For now I only chose mint because of familiarity and it being really simple.

If the partitioning failed, it's best not to continue and start troubleshooting from there.
The partitioning is what determines which portion of the hard drive does what, in this case determining the boot partition.
I use MX Linux, and I haven't run in to this problem myself. I wonder if it's an issue with the Mint installer.

Only massive retards recommend Mint. It's a completely pointless runtime built on top of a runtime that in turn is based on another runtime.

The only thing I can think is that you need to go into your bios and switch off something 'secure boot'. Sometimes computer manufacturers add in this feature to make is so people cannot install other operating systems (they say for security reasons).

Restart your computer and then spam one of these buttons while it is booting: F2, F12, DEL (The right button depends on the computer model). After that go into settings and turn it off.

* something called secure boot
Go into settings and turn off secure boot. Also there is a feature called 'fast startup' that only works on windows, turn that off too.
