I already had my lenovo Helix replace my laptop but I used it like laptop. Form factor of the SP3 much less awkward to use as tablet.

Actually he's right, I do the zoom myself in IE... but if you tell IE 100%... it should be 100% of what your screen scaling is. If you look at my screen of IE at 100% zoom and my control panel, they should be the same size! I'm only doing 125% scaling currently

You need display port 1.2 compliant monitors. On my Dell u2413, I had to go into the menu to enable display port 1.2 mode Only Display port works, not dvi. My u2413 has a display port OUT port.

yay, I'm gonna look forward to these monthly updates if it keeps causing the temp icon shutdown while installing!! I wonder how much damage it causes software wise....... like running the update again finishes everything off but i wonder if something might still be broken :( too bad you can't...

If you're asking you probably don't have it installed! It's a feature that needs to be added. I use Hibernation to preserve my workspace for the next day. After working all day and you're not done something, Hibernate, then wake up next day and everything is still where you left it. Awesome...

Didn't see this actually posted anywhere.... With my two monitors hooked up to the dock, when I walk away for a bit and all the monitors have gone into stand by, I click the mouse to wake up. Many times, the two externals stay in stand by mode. Sometimes everything wakes up ok. To fix when...

Just FYI, I have 2x Dell U2410 hooked on the dock mdp and set up as daisy chain from day 1. I used the cables that came with my dell monitor. By default all monitors were set at 59hz, but can change it to 60hz

I use the dock's NIC to have stable connection instead of WIFI :D I get the dhcp issues a lot like you described but on wifi for me

He said installing logitech setpoint driver. I have a logitech unifying receiver, so I'll be sure to install set point as I do get random spikes as well. Thanks Enrico for working that out.

Is this a fact? Link? I have lot 1429. Maybe I would like to go back to the store for a newer SP3?

Well my 2nd work week with the SP3 has been better in terms of stability, 1st week after the 2xrefresh. I'm ok with fans going on and off, and nothing extreme. I do find when idle, windows defender and something else does stuff to 99% my disk load. But no thermal shutdown and I'm docked most...

thanks for the videos, couple lag scenes like the rolling clouds near the end but hard to know if sp3 at fault, fans light hush now :)

Saga continues, hope that fix they were talking about happens this week! I left the SP3 for five days, undocked... I rdp to it with my surface RT for light work while away. Nice and reliable and always there when I needed it. Come back home... dock it, my two externals light up ok.. oop I...

it's an ok loud compared to the whiny fans of my Lenovo helix. The sp3 is an ok hushing sound I wonder if I should be trying to get a new SP3 instead

well either Microsoft has some work or I need to get it replaced as they seem to indicate that a few are affected, not all http://www.wpcentral.com/microsoft-issue-update-soon-fix-surface-pro-3-intel-i7-heating-problems

Thanks for the reminder, I disabled that almost right away on my Lenovo Helix. I can't remember what problem I was trying to fix on the Helix for that. No, I fully control my laptop... well it's been owning me the past couple days! Hopefully will get to the bottom for it! Installing windows...

So I'm leaving my computer on for the night, did my usual ctrlaltdel to lock it.... Come back after a while and the fan is going hard, back is hot, I unlock, task manager, boom 0% cpu usage and things start settling down. What's going on? Oh wait, just had a thought, indexing?

There seems to be a real issue with changes not applying depending if you do restart or shutdown. Like I was trying to change the RDP port, and if I go with shut down and turn on again, the PC is still listening on the old port not the new port as shown in the registry. If I did a restart...

Usually I would like to replicate the situation to show them... I'm not sure I can do that though

I've had it very warm earlier this week too (1hr long vid conf call, had to minimize vid here and there to get back some cpu to be able to do some other concurrent stuff) and it never shut down. It's all just today when things started getting really nuts with Bluetooth and other things... and...
