I've tried multiple times to record overnight videos using my 950 XL, but the videos always stop recording at the 2h 59m mark. Is this an artificial limit in WM10? I've tried recording to internal storage and to a microsd card but I experience the same issue. Recording at 1080p so I'm not...

I was hoping someone would be able to clarify the DRM surround shows and movies bought from the Store. I purchased The Walking Dead season pass through the Store app in Windows 10 and download the available episodes. I was thinking I would be able to copy them to an external drive and play them...

Just bought a Surface Pro 3 but it only downloads the Sept. 15 Firmware update, doesn't even show the Sept. 29 update in Windows Update. Any ideas? Anywhere I can download that specific update? The driver download from Microsoft's site only has the Sept. 15 package for download.

That's the process I used. Waited for 2 days and still wouldn't activate. I just don't understand what, if anything, I'm doing wrong. My desktop and laptop had no issues activating after a clean install, just my Surface 3 does.

I have the same issue with my S3 when trying to do a clean install (except mine was always W10 Home). I'm not sure how people are able to do a clean install on their S3's, mine just won't activate no matter what I do.

There was a skip option, but at the time I assumed I had a legitimate key, so I didn't think much of it. Oh well. I genuinely hope Microsoft listens to everyone's feedback, this could and should have been a lot simpler. In troubleshooting my issue, it seems that Microsoft does indeed...

Well that's the process I followed, and I was prompted for a key, so I'm not sure what I could have done differently that would have avoided that. I may just have to wait then and see if it eventually activates. Microsoft definitely could have communicated this more clearly though. I know they...

I did 2b with my Razer Blade. Used magic jellybean to find out what my "new" key is in Windows 10 after the upgrade. After that I did a clean install and used the "new" key from my Win 10 upgrade. Windows 10 will not activate after the clean install, and apparently they key I extracted from my...

Yes.

Finally drained the battery on my Surface 3 today (wouldn't even turn on, battery symbol would flash on the screen). Charged it for 2 hours 45 minutes and was at 85%, took an additional hour to get to 100%, so roughly 3 hours 45 minutes from dead to full charge while the Surface is turned off...

Installed Windows 10 on my S3 last night, just to play around on it. It was decent, but never as smooth as W8.1. Had lots of issues installing/updating apps from the Store, and could never get the Mail or Calendar apps to work. Went back to W8.1 this morning. Considering I use my Surface 3...

It's actually 2 years, not 1 year, and I purchased it when I bought my Surface 3. I had a couple support calls with Microsoft when I had my Surface 2, so for my Surface 3 it was a no brainer. If you're planning on being mobile with your Surface the accidental damage protection alone is worth it.

The cheapest Core M CPU is $281 (MSRP), plus active digitizers aren't cheap. $50 for that kind of tablet will be a pipe dream for a while lol. Man would I want one though!

When you check for updates, assuming there are new definition files to download, you'll see this (see the highlighted red box):

Superfetch is a feature in Windows 7 and 8 that tries to learn your behavior and predict what applications you're going to launch. It was mainly intended to help mechanical HHD's "seem faster" by preloading an application into memory so that when you go to use it the application loads...
