7 AnswersSoftware10 years agoComputer trouble: computer forced sleep?
My computer (an HP Compaq something or other), after turning it on and logging into my account, it goes to automatic sleep. Then the computer automatically restarts. Then the computer freezes. It tells me to click ESC for the bootup menu, F10 for something and F12 for something else. I can use any of these options because the computer is frozen. Any ideas?
This has happened before and they oftentimes just corrected themselves over time but I would like to have a computer who'll turn on when I turn it on and not just decide not to.

2 AnswersParanormal Phenomena1 decade agoResult of amplifying natural frequencies?
I learned in physics class that all things have natural frequencies. When an external source emits a certain frequency with a high amplitude, it can cause an item with the same natural frequency to shatter. My question is: why does it shatter? What is the natural frequency the frequency of? The intermolecular bonds? Atomic bonds? If a substance made up of more than one atom is bombarded with a frequency, how is its natural frequency determined? Does the natural frequency have to exactly match the emitted frequency of the external source?
