    Custom Resolution with 4k monitors

    I have two Dell P2415Q 4k monitors. These finally work fine for the most part with the Surface Dock. The downside of driving two 4k monitors is that the refresh rate per monitor drops from the optimal 60hz to 30hz each. These is due to bandwidth limitations. With the Intel tool linked below it...

    What if Microsoft had waited?

    In my mind Microsoft did make the conscious decision to push out the device early despite the known, significant issues. While there may be very good corporate and competitive reasons, I caused me personally many hours of frustration. I feel strongest that MS did not acknowledge any of these...

    Surface Dock Updater

    Anyone with Surface Dock issues should use the Updater tool to keep current. The firmware update along with the 4/19 book updates do appear to resolve a number of my issues with external monitors. Time will tell. Microsoft Surface Dock Updater

    Citrix Receiver 4.4 and Surface Book

    I installed Citrix Receiver two days ago while on a business trip and today I was fighting Surface Dock issues with my external monitors. These monitors had been working (reasonably) well and all the sudden they would not show a picture. Long story short uninstalling Citrix Receiver 4.4 did the...

    Firmware 27 Jan Does NOT resolve Sleep Issues

    In my case the update actually seem to make a few things worse. My main Dell P2415Q screen flickers once a minute, even after a reboot. I used to only have this if I docked and undocked the machine. There are some other items as well that don't work anymore after last night's update. Terrible.

    new surfacebook firmware 1/27/16

    I was hoping this update would provide improvement for the many issues I am having with dual monitors. Unfortunately this does not seem to be the case. In fact, my main Dell P2415Q monitor would turn off about every 30 seconds or so and then back on, just terrible. I noticed that Burnout...

    4K monitor not working thru new dock

    That's what I got working fairly reliably at this point. No luck at all with 2 4k monitors at all either. I have no tried yet to manually force 30hz. That sounds promising but based on your feedback I am not hopeful.

    SurfaceBook with Surface dock and two external displays

    Some of the latest updates did something to improve dual monitor support with the dock. I have a 4k and 1080p attached to the dock and set my Power Options to Hibernate at this point. I have had good luck with the Surface book for the last 3-5 days waking up reliably and turning on both monitors...

    MS could have launched and advertised the SB better

    This! The Surface Book is the most unstable computing device I have ever owned.
