  • Why does my laptop shut down after a few minutes?

    I have a Dell inspiron N5010 that will shut down after just a few minutes of turning on. I have checked the hardware diagnostics and the troubleshooter, removed and reinstalled the ram, taken the battery out and tried using just the power cord. Im at a loss at this point. The computer works great for a few minutes and then Black Screen.......when I restart it it turns on and then turns off again within a few minutes. Any help would be greatly appreciated guys/gals.

  • A serious question personality or circumstance?

    Ive had a dream that comes to me about once a month...in it I put myself between a gunman and a store full of people...I save them but die in the process...but I feel good about my choice always...ive had this dream since I as 12 im almost 30 now...

    Im a correctional officer...ive been put in the situation where ive helped someone who is trying to hang themselves...and been thanked after...

    I was in a car accident I was the first to wake up...I saved one friend the other two died...massive internal bleeding..I was seriously hurt but considered a hero..(**** that I just woke up first)

    I recently went out my front door to smoke a cigarette at 1 am...a drunk hit the lightpole in front of my house..I pulled him out but Im not sure if he survived or not...

    Is this just a case of being in the right place at the right time or am I just thinking too much...all these things started 4 years after my first dream.....my phsyc says I have a guardian angel problem and that im reading too much into these situations....I believe that im normal and things just happen around me...he says these things happen all the time...

    I do believe him but I feel like they happen way too often to me...am I wrong...I dont think ive got special powers and I dont believe im invincible but he seems to thing I put myself in harms way thinking I will die to protect others...thats not the case as far as I see it...I break bones get scrapes and bruises..im not invincible...and dont see myself as a hero....lol...far from it...I dont have a death wish....I dont go looking for these situations but I have a fear that I may be put in that situation one day and Im scared of it.....

    is this normal....and if not....what can I do to make these dreams,,,actually nightmares go away....I see the people ive helped and they all laugh at me while im trying to stop this gunman....he still kills me but as I die the victims tell me how much they appreciate it....

    I dont know what to make of this and thats why ive gone into counseling....my job is difficult enough without trying to see a problem around every corner...also its a danger to my coworkers if something happens and im too busy trying to save an inmate while a coworker gets her/his *** beat.....
