Thanks for the info. Yea as I suspected, bit of a shame since you have paid for a pro oem license in the device purchase, would have been nice to have a cheaper upgrade path.

Sorry to highjack and old thread... I had this happen to me.. Nothing to do with enterprise... I was running pro. It wouldnt boot to usb to reinstall my machine with a bmr. After trying a few times after a few reboots it would again... I changed nothing... Btw if your running enterprise have...

Hi, Anyone here running win 10 enterprise? If so did you have to purchase a complete new enterprise license. It seems like you can't pay to upgrade pro to enterprise. (Not in settings, upgrade & security, activation -- no store link to upgrade). Is this not supported for oem versions of windows...

My bluetooth mouse when the battery has low power often disconnects. Usually i don't re-pair it immediately so the battery recovers voltage slightly, pairs then disconnects again. Most people notice this in their remotes. They are flat, pull the batteries out put them back in they work for a few...

Could be the pen. Have you tried a new battery first?

Ignore the first half of the webpage goto the section Performing an Advanced Windows 10 Password Reset

I thought that but doesn't the dock have powered ports?

No problems here

No. But you need someone to make you a bootable usb that can reset the password in the sam. Format a usb with fat32 and unzip the bmr image that you can download from ms. You can then boot it via the alternate boot sequence to boot off usb by holding down vol down then pressing power for a...

Has anyone noticed in the past how long it takes ms to build the new bmr images for the sp4 after the iso's are released for each win10 build? I.e how long do you think it will be before the bmr images will be updated with the anniversary release?

I have run a few tests. (Not terribly comprehensive although) While it did seem to take a while to determine if the system was charging when plugging the adapter in, so far it looks like it will charge under full load. (GPU,CPU & SSD loaded). I have applied the latest system update since I had...

Not sure about the freezing, but (as posted in numerous other threads) chrome in recent tests has been shown to eat battery performance in a recent tests by ms. If you can avoid using it it may be best to use another browser. I would check memory usage before suspending the machine to see if...

Not a bad suggestion. I actually used hyper-v early on but there were issues with it early on (that i think ms has addressed now) but I actually use vmware now specifically for its unity mode (unity wasn't actually in use when the drain happened) I did two things after the drain happened...

Like i said i haven't ascertained yet if this is the case. Ive been too busy to run any tests. When it depleted it was a vm running a vpn and Netflix on the host (hardly the most taxing thing that you could do) but i certainly will be running stuff on the device that will use full cpu in the...

That is such a ridiculous analogy I'm not even going to warrant it with a response.

Are you joking. IF this is the case (the charger is insufficient, which i still haven't determined conclusively yet) there should be no usage scenario in which the battery is depleted when connected to mains. Nothing I'm doing is not normal usage. I.e tweaking the system to overclock etc. What...

Sounds like the power supply in the dock. Often switch mode power supplies can make a slightly audible sound if the switching frequency produces an audible harmonic. Can be due to many reasons one of which can be the capacitors they use. (Some smd ones have a piezo electric effect so they act...

Yea I agree with you. I talked to Ms surface support, they are getting me to do the usual reinstall the power driver etc, But honestly I don't think that has anything to do with it. As soon as the vm stopped. So did the battery drain. (I know because as soon as I stopped it the power indicator...

Hi, I was using my sp4 (i5 8g, 256gb ssd) this evening and noticed that while using it with ac power connected my battery was depleting while using a VM guest. My real concern is... is it possible the battery charger actually is insufficient to charge the sp4 when its under full load, or do...

Interesting mine is i5/8/256 could it be only be the i7,s having the issue?
