Shut-off after 60 seconds Bitlocker

Hi,

• Have you already locked the drive using bit locker or are you trying the lock the drive?

Here are a few steps you may try and let us know the outcome.

1. Please unplug all the external hardware devices attached to the computer. (mainly the scanners and the printers).
2. Change the power setting to never turn off the Computer.

• Type Power Options in the Search of the Charms bar.
• Click on "Change when the computer sleeps"
• Change the setting to Never for "turn off the display" and "Put the computer to sleep"

Let us know how it goes after you try these steps.

Hi,

Thank you very much for your answer. Unfortunately I have already followed all the steps you provide. The drive is already fully encrypted.

I have the same problem. Did you ever find a solution?

Still haven't found a solution, but I'm pretty sure my power supply and the hdd are OK, there is no overheating, and disabling BIOS power saving options also didn't affect it. I swapped the psu and hdd (with different models) to see if they are the culprit.

I've checked around, and there are a few people experiencing this problem. The change log for BIOS updates on some systems implies that this might be fixed by a BIOS update: see, e.g., http://ebookily.net/txt/wwwfujitsucom-136652684.html.
