Thanks for the recommendation. I remember from my COMPTIA A+ courses what a grounding strap was, but are we talking about the same thing? One of these things...

I'm the only person with a digitizer, everyone else uses their PCs and laptops and charge their phones, we have a large amount of projectors, too. Nothing wrong... Just my surface :( .

I only get the ones in my room, sadly. And since nothing shuts off or burns out there is no way to get someone to fix anything. Lol What am I supposed to say? My pen doesn't write on the screen but everything else works fine and dandy? XD

Hey everyone, I have a question for you all. At my work the outlet I have my Surface plugged into works fine. I have never had any issues (10 years and going), but for some reason when my Surface Pro 4 is plugged in, the pen "jumps" and skips strokes. I unplug my surface and it works perfectly...

How many battery cycles has it had? It should also say in the battery report. The design capacity is, from what I've seen, normal. I've seen anywhere from 38 to 39.5 from the SP4s I've used. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Cool. OK, I'll give that a try: Drivers Microsoft Surface Pro 4 ZIP 160701 WHQL Just wondering, my last update completely removed the camera and windows hello camera... I mean, they don't even appear in my device manager. How can I go about installing the drivers for them if they don't even...

Might I ask for a backup of said drivers [emoji16]... This is really annoying... I love my surface, but the speakers are not one of the reasons why I got it xD. Especially owning better speakers and other ones built into my monitor which are more powerful and aimed at me!!! Sent from my...

Hello everyone, I'm having a small issue. I have an LG 29 inch ultra wide monitor with speakers in it. When I have my Sp4 turned off, and I connect the cable via mini DisplayPort, I have audio after turning on my surface. If my Surface falls asleep, and I wake it up, the audio is gone. this...

Have you checked the surface app from the windows store? That's how I configured mine back when the AU was released. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Oh lord... I'm going to pull out a USB WiFi adapter, and let's see how that works... Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Hi. I just wanted to add one thing. The same setup but with the official mini dvi cable adapter doesn't cause the same issue with the same cables and everything. I can plug in the sp4 to the mini dvi to HDMI adapter to the same HDMI cable and everything is fine. I thought I could minimize the...

Hello everyone! I'm having an issue, and I don't know how to fix it. I got a USB 3.0 to HDMI adapter so I can just have 1 long USB cable running to a hub to plug in everything to my classroom (I'm a teacher) and project the sound, video, and have the USB presenter plugged in, etc. As soon as I...

Hello everyone. My SP4 IS ALWAYS in turbo mode even when there is nothing running. It causes my device to heat up and it also causes battery drain. I had just reformatted it 2 days ago and yesterday I got the update to anniversary update and now my device is always at 2.92 ghz. Is there any way...

I've been using my surface pro 2 for years. And about 7 months ago I got my surface pro 4. It's an expensive machine, so most people won't be willing to buy it. I use it all day every day and its portability is second to none. I highly recommend it. Sincerely, A teacher in Madrid [emoji5]️...

My SP4 wakes up when I plug in or even unplug the power cord, and fails to sleep. Multiple times I'll have my device sleeping on my desk (charged and charging) and have to leave and grab it, yank of the charging cord and feel my back warm up little by little through the heat of the SP4 in my...

My fan never comes on, really. I can even have about 10-15 tabs open, as long as they're not all flash youtube videos, my fan never comes on. I did leave like 3 YT videos open with 1080p on them and my fan turned on, but that isn't normal to have 3 open at once. Lol. I'd check to see what is...

This is for sure a software issue. This device I have USED To get 8+ hours of battery life with minimal issues, but for some reason since the February update I am getting 4-5 hours AT MOST with battery barely touching my device. No hardware issues, just software.

I had the sleep issue up until the update last month. Other than that I've been very happy with my device, except for battery life. Battery life is more than acceptable (between 5-6 hours with Balanced mode), but of course, who wouldn't love longer battery life? I say this from a very standard...

Even in use while charging mine doesn't turn the fan on with basic use... Why don't you check the task manager for any apps that could be cycling the CPU. I saw I had Excel today! WOW! Excel with a simple sheet was eating up my CPU. Before that, it was Microsoft Skype 32 Bit which I got rid of...

Sorry for the late reply. It's not that it would be an issue in 3 years, it's if your personal usage gets heavier it's an investment. If my usage stayed the same as with my Sp2 (basically, office documents, videos, etc) then the 4gb model for me would have been fine. But since within weeks of...
