Linux Mint is running smoothly after driver installation, but the mouse fails after logging in. Switching to the command line reveals numerous PCI errors. Please check the attached photo for details.

I thought about sharing this, have you used Fedora since it uses Weyland instead of x11? Honestly, regarding Nvidia drivers, we build our own at work because we've faced many problems with the ones Nvidia releases. Can you disable the Nvidia GPU in UEFI/Bios and test if it works without it? Then try turning off the iGPU and using just the Nvidia one. Also, do you have access to the CLI from another terminal?

Can't turn off GPUs in UEFI, but I can get commands in both the GUI and without it. When the GUI is on, mouse and trackpad stop functioning. I like Debian-based systems. I’ve tried setting up a good Nvidia driver before, but so far no success with GPU support in Linux. If you need solid instructions, I’d appreciate them.
