I opened the zip file and then went to Device Manager and did a "manual" install. That is, I had it scan my computer (not the internet) and it popped up two drivers (not sure where the other one came from) and then I selected the October driver. It installed and things have been better...

If we're talking about the same thing, my SB will be in sleep and I'll open it with Windows Hello looking for me and the lock screen is smaller than the rest of the screen. I swipe up and it disappears. I went with the beta driver also, and it's better than before. Still some hokiness here and...

If you want a longer return window, buying at Best Buy allows a return until January 15th.

I tried the beta graphics driver, and it seems to have made a substantial difference. I'm still having the occasional glitch but it does seem better after installing the beta driver.

I used Kaspersky with my SP3 and now with my Surface Book. Haven't noticed any problem(s) connected to Kaspersky that I'm aware of.

Didn't have that happen on my SP3 so not much help.

OP, if you haven't already, try doing a search for "photo" and/or "photography" or something similar. I've seen some photography aficionados posting on this or other forums about their experiences with the Surface Pro line.

I recently read where there's a known issue with Maps - same problem you are all describing. It's apparently in the pipeline to be corrected.

Just updated with the beta drivers. We'll see how it goes!

I have the i5/8/256/dGPU Surface Book and a 32" external monitor and the new dock. Using DP only. Haven't had any monitor problems with the dock - works equally well through the mDP port in the SB. Just goes to show that many have different experiences with the (mostly) same equipment. Haven't...

I have the i5/8/256/dGPU, but there's no bump or dent on the back of the clipboard. I do have that little "sticky" noise on my SB that some have reported when pushing up on the bottom of the keyboard in certain places...kind of a popping where the case will momentarily stick to some glue inside...

I started having DD crashes in FireFox, scrolling jerkiness too sometimes. Haven't noticed that in Chrome as yet...I haven't even noticed it in Edge although I won't be really using Edge much until MS beefs it up.

I'm with you. I have the i5/8/256/dGPU because I wanted to do some gaming but have a better experience than with my SP3. It absolutely does a better job gaming than my SP3. Again, not into heavy gaming. I've been running FireFox and I've noticed more DD crashes with it than with Chrome. I...

My Surface Book is the i5/8/256/dGPU model. I've had maybe 6 DD's in the last 2 weeks and no BSOD or other weirdness...BUT... I've downloaded a few older games from Steam and they start and run very well on my SB. I have the new Surface Dock and my Samsung S32D850T 32" monitor is attached...

No, did nothing to arrange for it to act that way. It does it all on its own apparently.

I bought this one at BB too, only in black. Nice case. I like it for putting my SB in my briefcase. It doesn't take up much room beyond actual SB dimensions. Probably going to get another sleeve with a pocket or two for the power supply etc when traveling, but the Thule is perfect for packing...

Mine follows as I stated up to a certain point. Seems like around 40% or so left on Battery 1 it then starts using Battery 2 as well.

Thanks for the link, leeshor! I did find these in my search, but I wasn't sure if it covered all the DP "bases" I needed or not. I'll give it a try - odd how the 3' is slightly higher than the 6' or 10' ... but I've not found marketing to be logical generally speaking.

I agree, wonderful device. I've only noticed a DD now and then, but not often. I thought I'd use Edge today (instead of FireFox) just to see what happens. Cruising these forums this morning and, so far, no slowdowns, DD's or anything else. We'll see how that goes. I don't detach my clipboard...

I've been searching for a mDP to DP cable (1.2) to my monitor from my Surface Book. I'm no expert in this, but I've found an issue that is probably related to the DP cable that came with my monitor. It's DP at both ends so I have an adapter to run it down to mDP. Anyone have a link for a...
