I did wonder whether it could be to do with the temperature. I have 
been trying to survive for most of the day without heating (= my 
effort to reduce my 'carbon footprint') and the weather has been 
colder recently. So I may have to do option (2).  :-<<

But could it be that the PSU is beginning to fail? Nixiyo is now 5 
years old.

Perhaps JB could comment on this?

Thanks for responses so far.
