Is the volume muted?

Thanks for the heads up...never knew there were touchpad sounds until now. I was able to activate the Type Cover 2 touchpad sounds by the following steps: Swipe the right edge to open the "Action Center">All Settings>Ease of Access>Keyboard>Toggle Keys (On/Off) HTH David

Thanks for confirming the phantom touches might actually be related to the Win10 update. I have been receiving all of the updates; although, the issue still occurs at times. I also replaced the AC charger after seeing that temporarily detaching & reattaching the magnetic connector resolved the...

It seems like my SP2 started having the phantom touch issue after upgrading to Win10, but it also appears there could be quite a few other items that may be related to the problem. However, I've found that changing the display settings (i.e. resolution, scaling, reinstalling the display...

Hello…I was hoping someone might be able to provide some assistance for my SP2 Pro which is experiencing an intermittently disabled touch screen and odd on-screen keyboard behaviors. The issues seem to have started after upgrading to Windows 10 in March 2016. The touch screen and the type...

I'm probably wrong; however, it seems like since the last firmware update (05/19/2015) my SP2 has been acting odd...especially, with the Type 2 keyboard. Not sure if that helps your issues, but thought I'd pass along the observation. HTH.

isurf...hope the PTV3000 works out or you...I have the Chromecast adaptor, but have been thinking about either the PTV3k or the MS wireless display adaptor (pending release). The MS product costs a little bit more, but I was thinking that it might be more "compatible" OOB with the SP2, but that...

Interesting...I have the Chromecast media player and can get it to work OK with my SP2; although (in my opinion)...Chrome still isn't as "smooth" as MS explorer when used with the SP2 (even when using with the current Chrome builds). Any opinion on a comparison between the new MS product vs...

Never been a big fan of screen protectors, but Phantom Glass looks interesting. Here's a link: http://www.phantomglasscanada.com/ Looking forward to the reviews...thanks.

Yesterday, I had replied to macmee's post that I had just received another "copy" of the 06-10-2014 "System Hardware Update"; but after re-checking the updates again today, that update is no longer listed and I now have the 07-08-2014 "System Hardware Update"...go figure. I'll never know how...

FWIW...I haven't received this month's update yet either; although, I did get the 06-10-2014 "System Hardware Update" yesterday for the umpteenth time.

That looks really interesting (and I'm assuming no issues exist that would permanently scramble any of the original touch settings). So, I wonder why something similar wasn't designed into the existing interface? Think I'll give it shot. Thanks for the info! David

Not including the almost daily Defender definitions and the "FEB 11th System Hardware" update I have about 18 other updates from FEB 11th. (incl. Windows, MS NET, security updates). As oion noted maybe the System Hardware update is related to the display calibration; however, with MS's recent...

Just curious, but since I haven't activated the free 2-year Skydrive 200GB coupon I would assume it's still valid, but is now going to be for Onedrive? Thanks for posting the info...

Just curious about the specifics of the FEB 11-2014 "system hardware" update? I received and installed the FEB 11th "firmware" update without issue, but the FEB 11th "HARDWARE" update didn't arrive until today (FEB 18-2014)? The link associated with this update only directs to the general MS...

GoodBytes...thanks for confirming. Don't know if a patch will ever be provided as specific to the power setting issue, but maybe when all of the other Type Cover's added "effects" are addressed this might also be resolved. And my apologies to S-tension for the partial thread hijacking (the...

Hello GoodBytes...yes, I returned my first Type Cover 2, but the second one has the same enhanced feature. I've also "tested" several other SP2's with Type Cover 2's and was able to replicate one particular power setting configuration that will disable the touchpad (or re-enable the...

For me, I wouldn't say the touchpad issues have become worse after the Feb update; however, it still didn't seem to resolve the issues related to losing the type cover connectivity and then needing to use the detach/reattach feature. That feature-problem-bug needs some attention before the...

Initially purchased the Maroo folio; but returned it when I realized it doesn't accommodate the SP2's kickstand configurations. I also have the Type Cover 2 and plan on going commando from now on (unless something changes my opinion).

Hope it fixes the detach-reattach feature. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOTDn2A7hcY
