    Flight Simulator X on Surface Pro

    I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work. The HD4000 chip in it handles itself pretty good on most games. You can take a look at this and see if its listed. At the time of posting this though, it seems like their site is having issues Intel HD Graphics 4000 Mobile - Games

    Pro overheated, won't power back on

    Oh well hmm.. I guess it is always possible that it is damaged. Do know if the fans were working on it? I would play around with the power button for a bit, maybe keep a flash drive plugged into it that has an activity light to see if that lights up. Unplug it from the wall and play with the...

    Pro overheated, won't power back on

    It should not have damaged itself. It would have throttled itself way before then. Did you make sure it actually has a charge? Maybe something got stuck running in the background using 100% CPU which is why it was much hotter then usual. This would also drain your battery real fast. Make sure to...

    Use touch screen as a trackpad?

    I would love to be able to use my touchscreen as a giant track pad. Have you seen those remote desktop apps for Android or maybe iPhone where when you connect you see the mouse cursor and the screen is like a trackpad for it?

    Rear wear..?

    I've been getting magic scratches on the back of mine. They just popped up out of no where up top by the camera.. I don't recall doing anything that might have caused it, so I haven't the slightest where they are coming from. All I know is the back of the Surface is very delicate.

    Answered :) Really didn't know how to answer the one about what I consider when buying a laptop or tablet because it really depends on the situation. Suppose I could have just put that though..

    cooling fan

    You can use a program like HWMonitor to monitor your temps. Download that and run it. Then download the wPrime Benchmark and run the 1024M test. When it runs you should see your cpu temps increase. 80C is when it starts to throttle itself so the fans should come on a bit before that. I don't...
