Acer Swift SF515-51T not cooperating with Big Sur installation

big sur will not install on my acer swift 5.

i previously had a problem where it would freeze randomly on the first install screen (the one with the blue bar) after "NoIdleSleepAssertion" would show up in the installer log. just now, it somehow was able to restart into MacOS Installer, the one with the black screen, but on this screen it seemingly freezes for no reason (i have no way of telling if its frozen or stuck on a big operation or something). wtf is causing these freezes?

you should be able to find my specs by googling my laptop model but otherwise heres some quick pc info https://i.imgur.com/Ae2NsBJ.png
