Hi batista31

Generally, Dell does not recommend downgrading the system BIOS. Please let me know if the system is overheating? Try cleaning the air vents using the can of compressed air. In addition try running the hardware diagnostics to check if the hardware is working as designed; please refer to the link below.

You can also run the hardware diagnostics by pressing the Fn + power.Let us know if there is any error code listed. Also connect an external cooling pad in the system.
