    Power Button defect? Hardware or Software?

    As I say, sometimes it just takes a long press rather than a click and hey presto. I wish tablets would have a light which isntantly lights up to let you know it is poiwering up and you've done things right, like you would on, well, a normal computer!

    Power Button defect? Hardware or Software?

    Welcome I think that it is more to do with software than the power button. I frequently have this "issue" across 3 different model surface devices (s3, sp3, sp4). Sometimes I have to just press it once, other times it seems to want me to hold the power button down for a few seconds. I think...

    Touch won't work if you use Pen

    Welcome. From my experience, this is not normal. It sounds like it might be an idea to either do a system reset, else reinstall all touch and pen drivers. It would be interesting to see whether this issue existed prior to the installation of photoshop

    My understanding, is nothing. He seems aware that no existing technology can compensate for the level of disorganisation he lives in (not meant in a negative way, just that some people have suck busy or hectic lives that programming it all into software would probably become more of a urden...

    My SP3 only charge one way?

    Not sure if it would help but have you tried giving the port and plug a good clean? My partner had an issue with the charger due to some stuff that had gotten in the charging port.

    Anti-Virus Software: Which do you use?

    Funny, because I've never had a single issue. About once a year I use a 3rd party application as a secondary scan, and you know what it finds? Absolutely nothing.

    Horribly slow web page loading

    Took about 7 seconds on my rural internet using an sp4. Might be an idea to try re-installing your wifi drivers.

    Microsoft edge not responding often

    Certain websites, such as Facebook, will create this problem regardless of browser. That aside, I can't be of any help because in its current state, no way I'd use edge.

    Just got the 4 i5 8gb bundle

    As above, welcome. You may find that your machine speeds up a bit after a few days. When first used, windows will spend a while doing a lot of work in the background.

    Before I start using the "Cloud Gaming" service...

    For only 10 bucks I say go for it, unless it is a mandatory 12 month subscription etc. I think it would depend on what games you play though.
