HP Compaq 8100 Elite Small Form Factor PC
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

hi I was using this pc for 2 years now and for the last 10 days I removed the rams for some reason and it started to switch off automatically every 30 minutes exactly no more no less, it also displays on the blue screen this message, " Management Platform is in Manufacturing Mode", I have tried power and sleep options, cleaned the pc, increased thermal (fan)  and reduced it no change, also no bios update is available since 2012 and it is not even installing, resetting the bios and CMOS didn't work, tried bios utility. no sign of hope it would help if you guys could tell me any solution. my motherboard is Hewlett-Packard 786h1.

Some HP computers can be "remotely managed" -- configured to power-on at a given date/time, to await a connection from a computer in the I.T. department. Is that your configuration? Does the configuration order the computer to power-off after 30 minutes, if the I.T. server does not try to connect?

No, I even formatted the pc and installed a new windows 10 the problem is still there it doesn't turn on automatically on a given date and time but whenever i turn it on it switches off at 30 minutes any help, please.

Does it really "turn off" after 30 minutes of "no activity", or does it go into "power-saving" mode, by darkening the screen?

 

Within "Settings", enter "power" to find the "power settings" screen. Does anything in that screen show "30" minutes?
