Windows 7 does not power off properly with bitlocker enabled

Hi

I've got an X200T and installed W7 Enterprise. Things are mostly working fine but i ran into a problem with bitlocker.

When shutting down, the shutdown process but does not power off my laptop battery: bluetooth light stays on, fan stays on, hardrive stay on.

the funny thing is if i force the complete shutdown by pressing the ON/OFF button for several seconds, the next startup run smoothly, the system does not detect any wrong shutdown.

 

i found a threat relative to this problem elsewhere but nothing on this forum.

 

i'm wondering if any of yours are able to run W7 enterprise 32bits + X200T + bitlocker without any problem
.

Let me know

cheers

Re: Windows 7 does not power off properly with bitlocker enabled

Hi,

 

I can not tell you about a correlation between your problem and Bitlocker, but what I can tell is that I also have this issue (from time to time - my system is seldom shut down ^^) on my machine, which is a T400, without using Bitlocker. So maybe this is a BIOS defect, as I don't remember this happening before BIOS version 3.

OSs under which this happened are Vista x64 and Win7 x64.

 

Greetz!

M.T.
