    It sounds like you have a camera that gets its power from the usb port and it is pulling more than the port is rated for. The camera may have some problem that is causing it to draw excess current. Try running without the camera for a while to see if that stops the error messages.

    If the system still gets too hot, try blowing some compressed air backwards through it to clean out any dust and lint that may have accumulated.

    That would explain why the system is running hot. You have some problem with the cooling fan. Either it has an obstruction or the bearing is failing. Better get it looked at before it causes greater damage from overheating.

    Many CPUs shut their speed down when they overheat. Others just go ahead and fry themselves. Be glad yours is the former type.
