Squares of Primes

If we let $f(n)$ denote the sum of all the divisors of the integer $n$, how many integers $i$ exist such that $1 le i le 2010$ and $f(i) = 1 + sqrt{i} + i$?
How do I find the solution to this problem? Here are my thoughts.
Thought Process 1: Find all perfect squares (of primes) less than 2010. Would that be correct?
I think that the answer is 14 ?

Oh sorry. I meant just 14. Sorry for my excitement.

But yes, I think your argument is correct. I could write up an answer, but it would be nearly identical to the last answer I gave you.

There's no hope unless $i=n^2$ is a square. In that case, $1$, $n$ and $n^2$ are certainly factors....

We find $2^2,3^2,5^2,7^2,11^2,13^2,17^2,19^2,ldots ,43^2$. So indeed $14$.
