PC started fine but almost immediately shut down advising me it had overheated.  PC had been on hibernation all night, so no chance for heat to build up.  Happened once before and noticed one of the vents was partially blocked. I've made sure to keep vent clear since then.  Shut down again as I was registering for this site (approximately 2 hrs. after startup).  Since the first overheat a few weeks ago , have been on the PC for hours every day and have not had any more problems until today.

Thanks a million, Praveen196 for your kind response. I would have thanked you sooner, but my email buried you in the 

SPAM file and I ran into it by chance.  Now, I described my problem perfectly.  However I forgot to mention the most important thing :  I have a brand new computer!!!!!! All of the fixes in the article are about dust buildup which is not possible with a computer that I started using at the end of March 2020.  I made sure to keep the vents clear after the first scare.  This seems to be some kind of an anomaly. Please remember the first time the PC had been on for minutes. No way to overheat.  It's a brand new computer so dust cannot be an issue. Fortunately, this nastiness has not happened again, but I would still like an explanation, or a solution.  Thanking you again for taking your time to respond, CarlosF1
