    Encouraging signs this morning: It woke from sleep successfully; All external monitors were detected and functioning normally; The external monitor defined as my main display was also maintained; Even the text scaling for the external monitors was maintained as per my settings (before the...

    Firmware Update 18 Nov

    When I checked again the update status, it said a reboot was required. It didn't say anything about failure, so I rebooted and everything now says success and no camera issues.

    Wake from sleep

    I tried that on my SB this morning and still no luck; it just wouldn't recognize my external monitors. I also have a batch file that I wrote and used for my SP2 for when things got out-of-whack every now and then. The batch file was--I would say--99% reliable and it also handled by...

    SB does not wake from sleep

    With these basic issues I am seeing, I'm coming to the opposite conclusion: That they didn't know about them because testing was lame and limited (e.g., probably the laptop by itself with no connections but the power cord. :)). Seriously, it's just too ridiculous. Back to this sleep issue...

    SB does not wake from sleep

    What's so frustrating about something like this is that you're so accustomed to leaving things in a certain state and wanting to resume exactly where you left off, but you now have to reboot and start from scratch.

    SB does not wake from sleep

    Same issue here. I've noticed that the length of time it has been sleeping is also a factor; that is, for short durations, it will still wake, but not for long durations.

    SB not Updating?

    One big difference post update is the login is taking longer than before; however, on my SP2, it's still fine. Strange. Apart from that, the improvements I've seen were after the firmware and hardware updates. I'm having less external display issues and my wired connection used to drop and...

    SB not Updating?

    Sadly, yes and no. No, because I had tried the upgrade undocked and it equally failed. Yes, because once I got the upgrade to start, undocking it caused me to get past the black screen issue I had at 91% progress.

    SB not Updating?

    Finally...success! :D I don't know exactly what it was that was preventing the upgrade, but here are my final sequence of events that led to the successful outcome: After still failing when I disabled all non-MS services and all startup apps, I was ready to try a refresh and start over from...

    SB not Updating?

    What if I told you that I just replaced by SB on Monday?! :) I had a defective keyboard (down arrow key) so my replacement arrived Monday, restored my system, then shipped out my defective unit on Tuesday. We had to stop troubleshooting, by the way, because nothing was working. She attempted...

    SB not Updating?

    Yep, that's what I tried but still no joy for me. :( On the phone now with Support and eventually she tried to use the MCT as well but, of course, installation ended with the same "helpful" error message: Something happened Windows 10 installation has failed Gee, thanks for all the details...

    SB not Updating?

    Congrats! But exactly what options did you select? I don't want to do it for another PC, but my SB, but that option went on to an Install Windows Pro option...so not exactly sure what to do.

    SB not Updating?

    Yep, I'm not surprised. My last attempt for the night still failed...I even disabled the antivirus. This is both frustrating and disappointing.

    SB not Updating?

    Keep trying and it will eventually find the Update. However, I still received the same error. I'm going to try disabling all non-Microsoft services at startup and see if that does anything. That's the last thing I'll be attempting tonight.

    SB not Updating?

    Yep, that one not only found and fixed different errors but repeated run of it resulted in no more errors found. Unfortunately, I still end up with 0x80070003. :(

    SB not Updating?

    I'm on chat with another one now...and I'm so infuriated! :mad: If it is one thing I hate is redoing something that I said I tried multiple times and it continues to fail! We haven't tried anything new all this time. I gave him the error code; at least there should be some steps to take for...

    SB not Updating?

    I'm also having issues. :mad: I ran sfc /scannow and even the Windows Update troubleshooter, but still the same error code in Event Viewer: 0x80070003. I was just on chat with an Answer Tech and he told me to do this: Kindly press and hold the power button for 30 seconds then release and then...
