Yes, I do use a Type C USB dongle. I do not use a docking station but I do use a connector to a HDMI video. Removing either did not solve the issue, but waking it up in the morning did for a while, so it has to be related to heat, and the fan.

Thank you for this, so I am in the US, and it is possible that this may be the problem.

Do I update these through the BIOS, I do not have Windows installed, never have, I believe.

But this started in earnest only yesterday.

Thank you, I suspect it is what you are suggesting.

Many thanks and best wishes,
