If you have working linux-kernel, before compile of kernel use command

make oldconfig

This make config with working old params.

Try install previus version of Mint, which use 3.8.* kernel. Compile kernel with old-config and upgrade system.

Download the kernel tarball from kernel.org, then execute the following:

$ tar xvzf kernel-xxx.tar.gz
$ cp /book/config-`uname -r` .config
$ make oldconfig # use default value for all prompt
$ make
$ make modules_install
$ make install
