    A few questions about the Sp4

    There will always be something better around the corner. Though when do we round the corner is anyone's guess. Sure the SP5 will be better than the SP4, but the SP6 will beat them both. I would just get the SP4, and then in couple of years upgrade to the SP6. But that is me.

    Wireless issues

    My wireless seems to have become flaky all of a sudden. It connects to the network, and then looses connectivity particularly to the internet. Have tried uninstalling the adapter..no joy. Have made the registry changes as well without luck. Solutions appreciated.

    Just today in a couple of situations the pen stopped inking. However pressing the button still brought up One Note. Just wouldn't recognise the tip, either as a click or display my scrawling.

    Surface Pro 4 - I feel ashamed for buying it.

    Solved My SP4 just self-destructed

    This is bizzare. Unless there is a HW failure stuff like this doesn't happen spontaneously. Have installed something recently?

    BSOD - PDC_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT

    Typically occurs due to memory corruption. This is the Power Dependency connector. To fix it.. unplug your machine for about 10-20 seconds and reboot. Normally will clear it up. Also make sure your drivers are upto date. Finally run a MemTest to ensure your RAM is OK. HTH.
