    SP3 i5 users--when do you hear your fan come on?

    i5 owner here. The biggest offender was chrome. I could be using it for 10 minutes, and the fan would come on. Uninstalling that not only improved my battery life but helped with the fan but it still wasn't enough. The fan would still come on everyday at random times and I couldn't pinpoint...

    Window Snapping Keyboard Shortcuts

    Is there a way to swap between snapped windows? So for instance, if I have two snapped windows open I would like to use a keyboard shortcut to bring one into focus and move back and forth between those two only.

    At what temp does your fan kick in?

    Just wanted to do a quick update. Used my Surface all day yesterday and the fan did not turn on once. I'm very happy now. I think it was probably the undervaluing that did the trick.

    Undervolt?

    I just did this and it may in fact be working for me. My fan hasn't come on all day and my device hasn't gotten hot. My temps are definitely better than before. I say try it. I was in the same boat as you struggling with heat issues. Just given the device a few hours to settle down after the...

    At what temp does your fan kick in?

    Something I might have done may be working. My surface has been cool as a cucumber this morning. And the fan has not turned on yet. Using the device right now my temp is 35C. I could not get it down below 45 last night. Maybe everything had to settle down after uninstalling the apps and...

    At what temp does your fan kick in?

    A full restore sounds awful but I might just do it... and if that doesn't work I will swap it out.

    At what temp does your fan kick in?

    I'm using IE. I've given up on Chrome. But the fan still seems to come on when I just have that app open and I'm not doing anything else other than reading forums. I just uninstalled a bunch of apps like bluestacks to see of that was the issue but it was still coming on.

    At what temp does your fan kick in?

    I'm really starting to wonder whether I have a bad Surface Pro. My fan seems to come on a lot. I never do anything particularly intensive and task manager confirms this. I am primarily just surfing the Web. My fan can turn on around 54C and I'm wondering if this is normal. I'm at my wits end...

    Surface Pro 3 Pen Nib Replacement

    MS is sending me a replacement pen. Spoke to someone on the phone and the process was pretty painless. This makes me consider getting the MS complete extended warranty.

    Surface Pro 3 Pen Nib Replacement

    My pen nib fell out and disappeared. So annoyed by this. Update: By some miracle I managed to find it on my couch. I ordered the HTC backup pen just to be safe because I can't be without one. But I'm also going to request that MS send me a replacement because the nib doesn't seem to be secure.

    Bamboo Paper for Windows 8

    I have to agree. The inking is soooooo smooth. It now makes me hate writing in OneNote. MS needs to pay attention here.

    Issue with OneNote (free version)

    I'm having this issue of pages changing accidentally but I am using the desktop app. Not sure what I'm doing to trigger it. I put the app in full page view and at some point while writing it swaps to another page in another notebook. I don't know how to stop it or what's causing it. Are there...

    Links in the Mail App

    I just added my personal account to Outlook and the links work as expected!! But now I have another problem. Why don't HTML emails display properly? They show up perfectly in the regular mail app but in Outlook some of them are not showing as they should; spacing is off, pictures are missing. I...

    Links in the Mail App

    I'm using outlook for work and I'm nervous about mixing work and personal email in the same app. I was wondering about setting them up under two different profiles but not sure how that works. Thinking it might be tedious swapping back and forth. Maybe I'm wrong?
