    Solved Simple feature missing? Brightness control keys

    Awesome thank you! Think they could at least put the symbols on there. I was going to file this under 'really dumb decisions companies make' :)

    Solved Simple feature missing? Brightness control keys

    I cannot believe this is not a feature but no way to adjust screen brightness via the keyboard? I'm on the Insider so I get Dark, Suggested, Brighter, Brightest. Where did the slider go?

    Solved Surface book dead....

    Now its back. Went to the MS store(thankfully 10 minutes away) and they had the same issue. They did a hard reset, which I tried and was unsuccessful with and once it got back into the UEFI screen it was fine. So Power + Volume Down for 30 seconds. There was some posts I read where it was a...

    Solved Surface book dead....

    After the good success of the firmware update it died this morning. Was using it in my dock and disconnected it to do some sketches in One Note. Battery said it was getting low so I put it back on the keyboard and attached the dock. Lots of hardware discovery noises, speakers come on and off...

    Did the November 2 firmware fix your issues?

    Well I can say so far things are much improved. No driver crashes, although embedded YouTube video's do tend to bring things to a halt. They really need Flashblocker or something similar. You open 6-7 tabs up to read the news and they all play at the same time. On my Mac I had a plug in for...

    Did the November 2 firmware fix your issues?

    MS released a new Surface Firmware yesterday. We were at the MS store buying a Surface Pro 4 for one our employee's (glutten for punishment) and when I explained my issues with my Surface book they said a new firmware was out. Came back and indeed it did update. Big fix was supposed to be the...

    Simple solution to many problems = Internet Explorer

    IE crashes constantly on me. Pages pause, lock up, anything with anything that moves. I usually goto a forum, click on 10-12 threads I want to read and open them in all new tabs. Trying to this is IE leads to frozen pages, pages that load 1/2 way, pages that do not respond, or worse pages...

    Given the wrong model? No GPU shown

    That was the problem, undocked and redocked it and it showed up.

    Given the wrong model? No GPU shown

    From my post: In the Device Manager no Nvidia card is shown.

    Given the wrong model? No GPU shown

    After the daily Intel driver crash I figured there has to be a way to make the Nvidia card the default, or on all the time. I'd sacrifice battery life but things would work better. I get No Nvidia card detected when running the Nvidia Control panel. In the Device Manager no Nvidia card is...

    Insider Builds Help Surface Book?

    After installing TH2 I am much happier. As a previous post said the trackpad improvement is 100 percent. It's fast, accurate, pinch to zoom works all the time, not part of the time. Seems faster over all especially on domain login.

    Amazing amount of problems with Surface Book

    Latest update for sure improved the docking situation. Came in this morning, did not turn the Surface off at home, just closed it. Took it out of my bag, connected it to the dock and in about 10-15 seconds everything was working and correct. Takes it a bit to figure things out but I have a...

    One feature OSX has that Win10 does not...anyone know how to replicate?

    If you are in a text or other input field it stops there. The function in OSX is regardless of the field. Apparently so does the option someone gave above but still better than nothing.

    One feature OSX has that Win10 does not...anyone know how to replicate?

    You can see in the original post I know END is there, but that requires an FN key press and is on opposite sides of the keyboard. Plus END takes you the END of the active window, not the end of a web page, there is a difference in the two functions.

    Forbes just quoted you guys on SB Problems - lol

    I disabled Hyper-V, which I do want but not need today. Maybe its in my head but much snappier, especially on boot and login.

    One feature OSX has that Win10 does not...anyone know how to replicate?

    I read and post in a lot of forums. With the page views set to the highest number of posts something that was always helpful was to go to the bottom of the page instantly. Apple+Down Arrow would send you to the bottom, then you scrolled up. End is a FN. Anyway to bind like ALT+Down Arrow...

    Forbes just quoted you guys on SB Problems - lol

    I must goto the Microsoft store now and exploit my 15 seconds of fame to get them to fix my laptop :) Today I have opposite problem to yesterday. With the last update my dock issues went away but I still get the color temp changes on the laptop itself.

    Issues...ugh.

    I did reset it last night so that means the initial updates were done in the dock. I restored it to factory defaults last night(wiping everything, reinstall), saw one problem was still there and shut it down for the night. When I came in the office it did its first updates in the dock. It...

    Just go to Start-Settings-Updates-Windows Update and hit check for updates.

    Issues...ugh.

    From a poster in another thread, re-run the updates with the dock attached. I did all my updates and setup before unboxing the dock. This morning it reapplied what looked like the same update and my dock issues seem to have disappeared.
