I normally use the server netinstall ISO, as it avoids installing all the packages only to replace them immediately with the first "dnf update". F40 was originally installed and I used the laptop for a month or two. No major issues until doing the BIOS update. > Though the rest of your problems suggest it's the hardware.

Laptop is brand new, and it has no problem keeping BIOS settings, date/time, etc., so I doubt the CMOS battery is going flat.
