    SP6 i5/8gb/128 vs SP7 i3/4gb/128+type cover

    I agree with this reply, however, if you're prioritizing money savings and willing to even look at an i3 as an option, then I feel the need to make sure you understand the performance difference is massive spec wise. She may complain about the slowness of the SP7 vs the SP6. That 8GB ram and...

    How to set up Surface Pro 17 with two AOC E1659FWUX portable USB monitors?

    Ahh, never tried a USB monitor. Figured that everything would connect via display port instead. Curious to see how this is made to work with a Surface Pro in general, not just 2017. It looks like it's DIsplay Link compatible so maybe go to the Display Link website and download the software or...

    A Stand That Supports BOTH Keyboard and Tablet (laptop mode)

    Maybe find a way to get a Surface Pro 3 docking station with a stand to lift it up and something to hold the keyboard cover while it's attached? Pretty sure it would be some kind of custom setup.

    microsoft surface laptop 3 (how to detach the keyboard)

    I do believe only the Surface Book has a button that allows you to detach the screen from the keyboard. Otherwise, the Surface Pro doesn't require a button press to detach the keyboard from the screen.

    HELP: No Wi-Fi networks found

    I have found that tapping on the WiFi icon in the system tray and then tapping the blue "WiFi" square to turn off Wifi, then turn it back on helps my Surface Pro actually find networks again sometimes. The issue hasn't occurred in a few days for me, but that usually helps me see networks to...

    CPU load high when docked

    Missing any Surface Pro 3 firmware at all? Also, does the docking station have a firmware update in Windows Update?

    Solved Marvel AVASTAR Bluetooth Radio Adapter Error

    This is so crazy. I experienced the exact opposite! Installing the Marvell drivers have been a God Send and my Surface Pro 6 is BLAZING fast now! I would never go back to generic drivers, but hey, as long as they can function when the Marvell drivers do not. I guess it works! lmao

    Facebook App no longer available. Edge Chromium and Facebook Beta website replacing the app?

    Last week, I powered up my Surface Pro 6 and hit the "Facebook" tile in my start menu. The app crashed. I opened it again and the app opened this time, but stated that my username/password was incorrect. I entered the credentials in correctly and recieved a prompt stating "This app is no longer...

    fixed static sound, now no KB or mousepad??

    On My Surface 3, this was fixed after a firmware update, but going into BIOS and booting to windows fixed the issue for me whenever it occurred. Not sure what the name of the firmware was, but it was included in a Windows Update I did years ago. See if there are any firmware updates available...

    Surface Pro 6+ in the enterprise

    Curious about the Surface Pro 6 or higher in the enterprise. I have had a Surface 3 (non-pro) which understandably had issues because it was the lower end Surface, but the issues with it were eventually resolved in the following months. Several companies used iPads for the enterprise and those...

    Dual Monitor Issues

    Try pulling power from the Surface Dock and waiting like 15 seconds, then plug the power cord back into the dock. That may help fix the issue for now....but the issue may return. Hopefully it does not.

    Dual monitor issues with Surface Pro 7

    Off Topic: I would LOVE for my employer to switch to Surface Pro 6's/7's instead of the crap iPads/laptops/all in one pcs that they are making everyone use. I mean you can dock anywhere and it's a FULL BLOWN PC. NOT a "Mobile Device" as my iPad was often identified as by MULTIPLE websites that I...

    Dual monitor issues with Surface Pro 7

    VGA adapters????? Can't use DVI or Display Port on the monitors? Get mini Display Port to regular Display Port or DVI at least? I know that HDMI is not as common yet. I wouldn't mess with Analog VGA cables anymore. Yes, I would suggest updating the firmware on the dock for sure. This was an...

    Surface Pro 6 vs. SP3 docking station

    I was able to download this file! Gonna see if my friend can 3D Print it for me! I personally LOVE the Surface Pro 3 docking station even though it has some lesser features than the new Surface Pro dock, but I love how it holds the Surface Pro up!

    Please for guide how to use surface pro without a keyboard

    I remember my Surface Pro 6 exhibiting the behavior where the on screen keyboard came up even though the physical keyboard cover was attached to the bottom of my Surface Pro 6. It seems like you need to install some firmware updates and possibly some OS updates as well. For starters, what...

    Bluetooth issues

    Unfortunately you may have to boot Win10 in recovery mode and try the system file repair option and if that does not work, then a full blown reset erasing all files and having a fresh install of windows. That may help. Also, are you on Windows 10 1903 or 1909? 1909 has been an option update so...

    Bluetooth issues

    The only thing I can think of is maybe you need the Marvell drivers that were part of Windows Update, but that's being sent out randomly to Surface Pro 6 devices and not at the same time. It may be a while before you get the Marvell drivers in Windows update. You can check your update history to...

    Spotting a Surface in the wild...

    It has permeated media now. NFL, New Amsterdam TV Show, Greys Anatomy, 911 show, new Bad Boys movie, pretty much any movie/tv show that has tech involved. I love it because now it's more realistic using a Surface Pro to accomplish the tasks they're trying to do in the movie. Before, it was...

    Surface Pro 6 restarts with 75% battery level

    Two completely different pieces of hardware. A firmware update. I'm sure the issue will be fixed for the Surface Pro 4, but just because it has not been fixed yet does not mean it won't ever be fixed. It took the Surface Pro 3s a long time to get the fix as well. I never experienced the issue at...
