    Cannot boot from USB

    Can someone please help me. I'm trying to boot from USB and it isn't working on my SP3. I've formated the USB to FAT32 and made it bootable, I've also changed the UEFI settings to boot as USB>SSD. I've also tried to hold volume down while pressing power. I've also tried to boot from USB from...

    Disabled connected standby, now sleep no longer an option.

    Thanks, I ran the report, but it only gave me today. I'm going to charge it to full and unplug it and run this again tomorrow.

    Disabled connected standby, now sleep no longer an option.

    Seems like an incredibly bad design. I can literally unplug my SP3 after a full charge, close the lid, and ~12 hours later it will have 20% or less battery. I thought this thing is supposed to be a usable device on the go? Not really useful if I'm tethered to a wall outlet all of the time. Going...

    Disabled connected standby, now sleep no longer an option.

    I was sick of having my SP3 die ALL THE TIME when the lid was closed and it should have been using minimal battery so I turned off connected standby, however, normal standby or sleep is no longer an option in power options. Just hibernate. Is this Microsofts way of forcing us to use CS? That is...

    Print to Onenote Metro or PPT management app?

    Any way to print to Onenote Metro? Onenote desktop is too much for my needs (annotating PPT and PDF). I know I could just annotate them with PPT, but I much prefer having the notebook system and file management of onenote. When using onenote, I do miss out on the embedded videos my professors...

    Why is M$ so bad at updating their devices?

    I thought it would be great to buy a surface pro 3 because it is microsoft's flagship device. If there are any updates to Windows or any drivers, microsoft can take care of it without having to rely on third party manufactures. This is why I use a Nexus android phone. It is from google and it is...

    Anyone else have no interest in upgrading their SP3 to Win 10?

    I think Windows 10 is incredible. I'm finally using my SP3 again after it had been sitting in my school bag since the semester ended. I use a Zenbook Prime UX31A (non touch) for actual work and downloading android sdk packages etc. on to because of the bigger screen and bigger/better keyboard...

    Sleeves/case for bare SP3?

    Thanks for the pics. Ugh. Why does it have to be such a beautiful sleeve? Lol. I think I've almost spent the equivalent amount on accessories as I have on the SP3.

    Poll Touchpad vs Mouse for desktop use?

    About to buy a dual monitor setup and docking station to use my SP3 as a desktop. Currently trying to decide between a touchpad or arc mouse for my pointing needs. Vote for what you'd use and any product suggestions for either or. :)

    Sleeves/case for bare SP3?

    Can you take pictures with the SP3 in it? I love the look of this one, but I'm looking for a case that's just big enough. I don't want a bunch of extra room, tight fit would be ideal. Thanks

    Solved Bought wrong microphone for recording lectures, will this adapter work?

    How are you able to save a portion of the screen like this @ScottyS ? I can double tap the top of the pen to take a screen shot and then select the area, but then it inserts it into Onenote. Is there a way you're saving just the selected are as an image? Thanks

    Any experts able to help me with Onenote annoyances?

    I probably seem pretty needy as far as asking for help goes ;), but bare with me, cause you guys rock. Ok, I'm learning onenote more and more everyday and am falling even more in love with it, but there are a couple of things that are rather frustrating. Firstly, sometimes when I'm using a...

    Should I Buy an SP3 now?

    I have the i5 256 and mine is always really cool. I don't use super heavy programs, but reader, Onenote, 10 tabs of chrome, and lots of chrome extensions all open at once never gets me hot. Usually around 40% RAM with all of the above. I actually first owned the 4 GB model, but my fan was...

    Solved Bought wrong microphone for recording lectures, will this adapter work?

    Well the little train worked! I actually can put decent audio with my lecture notes now! Well, the term "decent" is used loosely as this little mic isn't exactly high end. I'll play with recording settings to see what I can do. Recording at 48kbps mono gets the job done though for now. Thanks...
