Why is my acer laptop 5515, keep shutting down while im using it?

How soon does it shut down?
The two most common reasons are low power or over heating.

 

[pamrob]

around every 5 minutes

That does sound more like over heating.
Do you hear the fan in the laptop speed up before the shut down?

See if you can download and install Speedfan to monitor the temps.
Use another computer to do the download if you can.
