I'm not sure if you are still trying to install or if you were able to
install
using text mode or VNC.  Are you using Xorg or Wayland? Can you
connect to the system using ssh and view dmesg after the screen goes
blank?

Usually there will be some error messages that you can use in web searches.
These days most problems are being discussed and bug reports filed by the
time
I find the details in a log/journal.  Search for recent reports of issues
with your
graphics hardware may find useful information.   The problem may not be
directly
tied to the graphics hardware (e.g., power management glitches leading to
overheating on an older system with dust in the cooling fins) so you have
to
scrutinize warning messages to determine if they are related to your
graphics
issue.
