Could be malware if you can't install either. Or your account doesn't have admin privileges.

Like we had anything to do with your purchase. ;) Welcome and enjoy your new work toys!

Install the Surface Hub app and it will show your device serial number.

+1 for using an computer with a DVD drive over the network. You can also add that drive to the network for future use.

Nope, it doesn't turn off. You have to check the system tray for the battery charge. I do hope on the next generation of Surface chargers they incorporate what Apple does-- when charging it shows an orange light, and when fully charged it shows green. :)

You don't have to turn tiles off/on and reposition to clear the data/info. Just powering off the band will also clear the info. Swipe all the way to the right in the gear icon, power icon, and turn power off. Then turn the band back on with the power button.

According to this article, it's mainly to disable the Windows button functionality (which should include disabling the haptics) for artists and note taking. http://www.microsoftproductreviews.com/surface/surface-hub-update-lets-users-disable-windows-button/

Not sure what noise you're talking about, but once in awhile I do get a creak when opening it. I'm not concerned at all as its been working fine. But i haven't seen any reports of people having the kickstand break either. Maybe stop by the store to see if the creak is exhibited on store models...

Occasionally see this too when I'm switching between portrait and landscape with the on screen keyboard up. As jeff noted, a reboot fixes it.

Surface Hub app is now updated with a Windows button enable/disable for artists and note taking. Not sure they fixed the pen buttons but its nice to see where they're going with this app. http://apps.microsoft.com/windows/en-us/app/surface-hub/a0ccf2f2-defa-45b9-8a81-510b819333ef

+1 for VLC. It does the job very well and should satisfy your requirements.

Here's what I'm using. Its a 3 port USB 3.0 hub with a built-in gigabit ethernet which I didn't want to lose if I plugged in a USB device. It also works on my MacBook Pro which is a plus...

I get the same thing. Other than a repetitive loop of 11/18/2014 System update, everything is working fine so I'm not too concerned. Its part of the territory when trying Win10 Tech Preview aka alpha/beta software. :)

If there's a local MS store, definitely drop by. They should be able to exchange it for a new one after confirming the old one has died. Is the cable frayed where the adapter plugs into the SP3? I've read others have seen something similar and have tried reinforcing that area with heat shrink...

Welcome to the forums! I don't hear a beep per se when you press the Windows button, but you should hear/feel the light haptics buzz.

Welcome Marc! From what I recall, you have up to 30 days to purchase Microsoft Complete. So yes, you can purchase the warranty later but you have limited time. Someone here will correct me if I'm wrong on the days.

Yes, any charger will work like your Kindle, iPad, or phone charger. Microsoft does not sell a specific charger for the wireless display adapter, but you could use another computer to plug it within reach of your tv's HDMI port.

Welcome! I still continue to use both Mac (on retina MBP) and Windows (SP3) and think it depends on what you do. Each has its own pros and cons for experienced to new user, to graphics and development, each person is different and what they can afford. At the moment, I would have to say Windows...

You don't need the store app to make the wireless adapter work.
