    Third New Problem: Aggressive CPU Slowdown

    Exactly this. I had a few problems on my machine, so sent it back for a replacement. I did spend a few days trying to rectify things... but why bother? It's a brand new machine and under warranty so you're completely within your rights to ask for a free replacement. It sucks but hey, shit...

    First time docking, problems with Bluetooth mouse!

    Received an email from customer support. It seems they've received it at least (although online tracking says they haven't) but they regret to inform me there's going to be a delay in sending me out a replacement! Lucky I've held on to my original Pro for the time being or I'd be screwing by now.

    Power Button defect? Hardware or Software?

    Got to say, I think this is hardware button. My original Pro power button acts funny and I've basically found the way to overcome it... press it really hard! And keep it held down for a second or two, so far it's been faultless like that.

    First time docking, problems with Bluetooth mouse!

    It's going through the process. Took me 4 days to get my return label! Multiple contacts with 5+ Microsoft support representatives over email, online chat and phone... terrible customer service. Sent off via UPS on Saturday and they still haven't received it; I know it's not long but I wouldn't...

    First time docking, problems with Bluetooth mouse!

    Oh well just unlucky this time I hope! Although... so far, I have been unable to send it back :mad: Set up the return and for some reason I was unable to print my return label (it was greyed out) so I contacted Support yesterday and they cancelled my return and started it again and said to...

    First time docking, problems with Bluetooth mouse!

    Lots of problems with this machine! :confused: As well as the above, there's a Wi-Fi problem... it takes ages to connect and when it does it won't always give me 'full access' and even when it is properly connected the download speeds are about 25% of what I get from my other devices! Even...

    First time docking, problems with Bluetooth mouse!

    Thanks yeah I haven't had my old Surface turned on since I got the new one though! So sadly it's not that. Tried re-pairing. Tried stopping/starting the service. Tried not using Wi-Fi at the same time. It's so subtle but really frustrating! I also find when I start to move the mouse it lags...

    First time docking, problems with Bluetooth mouse!

    Tried uninstalling/reinstalling - no change. Am now in talks with Surface Support though their first suggestion was trying a different mouse! I don't have another Bluetooth one and the one I'm using now has been working fine on my old Surface for years now. I do have other Bluetooth devices...

    First time docking, problems with Bluetooth mouse!

    How do I get to the troubleshooter? Sorry I don't have it in front of me at the moment and am not quite sure what you mean.

    First time docking, problems with Bluetooth mouse!

    So I docked my new Surface Pro tonight to the exact same setup I had on my original one. Mouse is jerky every now and then, very annoying! Once it stopped completely for about 15 seconds. I've tried both 2.4GHz & 5GHz networks which are both the same. I had this on my original but changing...

    Got mine !

    Finally got my Type Cover! I must admit it's my favourite thing about the new computer! Feels really smooth, keys have lovely travel, the touchpad is is another league to the original model in terms of size and what you can do with it and the back lighting is excellent in lower light (I was...

    New Surface Pro (2017) Official Thread

    Sounds like you've got to return that... most of the reviews I read were sent the i7 model and they all posted positive comments about the fan hardly ever coming on!

    New Surface Pro (2017) Official Thread

    My Surface Pro is back in the box now lol, until my Type Cover is delivered next week... can't be arsed using just half the experience! I'd rather wait and enjoy it altogether. I must concur that Windows Hello seems terrible. I don't usually use any kind of log in credentials as it's only me...

    Got mine !

    Yes, education discount (£97.90 saving) and Quidco cashback (£42.34 saving) They've updated the store to stating that the Type Covers will not be released until 30th June now :( bummer. So pointless even letting me have the machine first! Might just wrap it back up and wait, I want the full...

    Got mine !

    Well... got my Surface! No keyboard though :( not even dispatched yet, and I've since noticed most are out of stock on the store, I hope I won't be waiting ages for it. Turns out the original Type Cover is not compatible so haven't done much with it yet! Initial thoughts though, compared to the...

    Got mine !

    I'm the opposite to you! Managed to talk to UPS and get my Surface redirected to a local collection point... so it's waiting for me to pick up after work now :) however, it seems my Type Cover hasn't been shipped yet! Is it the same connector as the original Surface Pro? Hopefully I can just...

    Got mine !

    My Surface is now only 20 miles away! It arrived at the central delivery hub in the early hours... however I'm not holding out hope for it being delivered today seeing as though it's now past 09:00 and is not 'Out for Delivery' yet :(
