Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

The past few days my computer has worked fine.  I've had it plugged in constantly and used it for nearly 4 hrs straight yesterday.   Today, I took it to school and plugged it in in their power strip tables.  It started up, but after abotu 3 minutes it shut off.  I pressed the on button.  No sucess.  I unplugged and replugged the cord.  Still no success.  I decided to move to a different table.  I plugged it in, but it shut off one more after around 3 minutes.  I unpluged the battery charger cord.  I plugged it in again.  I unplugged both ends ofthe cord.  I waited about 2 minutes, and pluggedi t back in.  Nothing worked.  I unplugged the cord form itself.  No success.  I took the battery out of the laptop and plugged it in.  Nothing.  It wouldn't turn on.  I put the battery back in.  As you can guess, there was no success.  I moved to a different table and plugged the cord into the wall this time.  Now it has been going for about 10-15 minutes.   I'm afraid this might happen again, though, or I might not be able to access the wall.  Any suggestions of how to prevent this, or ideas as to what the problem could be?

 

Thanks!
