guys apologize if its in here but i hit install now and instead of later and in middle of work day and not a lot of time to hunt. everything is fine except i had way too small resolution and no second monitor support. in device manager i uninstalled intel video driver and on restart the...

i wouldnt buy 4GB in todays world unless it was all i could afford. my quick example is from my Mac Mini but makes sense and works for this example. the computer would generally be using 3GB of ram with my daily activities and when i upgraded it to 8GB it then would run at around 5GB of ram...

you made the right choice. i have the i5 SP3 and the Yoga 3 14" i5 and the SP3 is so much more enjoyable to use in my opinion and rarely use the Yoga. enjoy

there are a couple threads on this here but i personally stopped worrying about batteries many years ago and even my 4 year old laptops and phones charge and hold that charge very close to what they did when they were new.

I am not arguing but really if I am around my laptop or tablet then so is my phone and therefore the WiFi my phone would provide and the emails would be coming in and I would not be waiting for anything. Also pretty much everything else you mentioned is solved with a battery pack. On android or...

i dont understand the need for more than 1 data capable device? my phone is with Verizon which gets LTE even when i am in my camper in remote locations almost all the time and when it doesnt my computer wouldnt either. if my computer had LTE capable then it would still be on my account using the...

i find One Drive to also be slower than my other cloud storage options when it comes to uploading. i have 1.5 up and for example Dropbox utilizes much of that where One Drive maybe uses 20% of that. outside of that i really like it

if your using FoxFi then try connecting it via USB mode and then enable "Hide Tether Useage" if this works then you can turn on Wifi Share mode and that will let your SP3 become a hotspot for other devices if you need that.

i like Winamp as well but been trying Music app. my best advice is to AVOID iTunes if you ever plan to leave it or care about your library organization. iTunes destroys libraries and have spent too much time fixing it after. i do have Macs too and i use iTunes on them ONLY to add what i want...

i dont have a link handy but there are numerous threads on this issue here. sadly its known and i have this setup as well. i have mine not to sleep when plugged in. works for me because i generally am using it dock during work hours and then charge easily lasts until i put it back in dock again.

how would a laptop with a slight processor bump that actually has no performance advantage and meaningless to his use bump in graphics with the same RAM and HDD help his situation? or better yet while are you trolling a SP3 forum when there is certainly a forum for your device?

just in case like me you find your touchpad scroll less than reliable or also like me your corner clicks not so great i thought i would post that i had a chat with MS and they sent a new one to me and OOH BOY is it better. i wish i had known what it was supposed to be like from day one or i...

i did not know that. sorry to hear that was not an option. i wonder why it would not be the same warranty for all? seems to me the more they sell the more they make.

i thought about this being an issue over time as well but i dis spend the extra $150 for the 2 year warranty and so i dont worry about anything but water knowing i wont still be using it in 2 years.

congrats on figuring it out and sad it took the long road to do it.

if you can recall when this started then look to see if you accepted a windows update and roll back that update and see if it fixes the problem. i have read about this many times and honestly there are multiple things that people say worked and some it was a restore.

+1 too many things in life to worry about and in last probably 5+ years i havent had a battery issue and you can read an article from an "expert" saying one thing and another saying another although they all tend to agree that you shouldnt let them die. my 2011 Macbook Air has been plugged in...

+1 never had an issue at all even when i didnt know about timing. just works.

but really i dont see how this matters for "extra" storage? all i put on my 128GB MicroSD is music and pics so if they made a 500GB MicroSD for me personally 256GB SSD internal is more than enough for my speed required files and the 500GB MicroSD would just be for simple storage.

i searched and did not see a thread about your desktop setup so i started one. i thought it was best to paintbrush over my location and IP but it is there and looks correct. this is done thanks to Rainmeter and 7+ Taskbar Tweaker with a touch of my own customization
