    New Surface Book 2, icons missing?

    Hi everyone. I just got my Surface Book 2 (it was heavily discounted on the Microsoft store, and after getting a defective SP7, I decided to try the Surface book, and boy does it not disappoint :D ). Anyways, I turned it on, and both batteries were dead upon initial start up. So I plugged it...

    SP4 post Anniversary Update

    Well I for one am quite happy with the update. When I first got the update I had the dreaded high CPU speed which drained my battery faster and caused the fans to be on, generally speaking, almost always. So what did I do? I reformatted it by downloading the image and putting it on a USB drive...

    sp4 fan kick in a lot

    Very true. I've sometimes not been able to solve some office issues with that feature. But give it a try! You never know and you have nothing to lose.

    sp4 fan kick in a lot

    Have you done a full restart? Sometimes glitches happen... The only thing to do is restart the computer and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't, then I'd consider uninstalling and reinstalling office once again.

    Have you considered chatting with Microsoft USA just to get the ball rolling?

    Surface Pro4 - How do I create the image for the Window/Primary patition?

    Re: Surface Pro4 - How to create the image for the Window/Primary patition Excellent. I should do the same. Now that I have my device running as I like, Haha. Thanks. But if you don't mind me asking, how do you restore it? Do you have to reinstall windows and then restore? Or is there a way...

    Terrible battery life of surface pro 4 - do you agree?

    Today I had my CPU limited to 60% and I was getting about 4-5 hours of usage while updating blog posts and uploading some pictures I had taken with my camera. Nothing CPU intensive at all, and boy did I feel bad :(...

    Then I stand corrected. They aren't repairing it then. They're replacing it.

    Surface Pro 3 or 4? Or neither?

    I have the SP4 256 / 8gb i5. If i had to pick between the 4GB model SP4 and the 8GB model SP3, I'd get the SP3. I decided to try and use my SP4 as my main machine for the last two weeks. I don't turn on my desktop at all. I have an adapter for the monitor and sculpt keyboard and mouse, as well...

    Terrible battery life of surface pro 4 - do you agree?

    That is true, but seeing 3 hours and 30 minutes total from what I got yesterday is absolutely pathetic with the minimal usage I gave it. I did NOTHING intensive at all. With the same usage I used to get 8-9 hours, now I'm getting 4 or 5 if I'm extremely lucky for some reason! During Easter...

    No Surface Pro 5 in 2016?

    I love all the speculation going on in this forum! LOL! NO ONE knows if or when it'll come out. It'll probably come out since the SP4 is more successful than the SP3. And the SP3 was more successful than the SP2. I don't see why they'd stop... But dates? We don't have a clue. As of right now, MS...

    Terrible battery life of surface pro 4 - do you agree?

    Sadly, I think if I were to get 6 hours I'd be happy... Ever since the last update, I'm getting 3 hours with normal usage, and 4 hours with minimal usage. I was getting 6 hours with normal usage, and 8-9 hours with minimal usage (like office documents or browsing the web a bit). I really think...
