Love it - Great movie too!

I replied to bangsters and covered a little about my machine - But you were / are dead RIGHT about my machine. I would venture to say that I truly believe that Microsoft in their divine wisdom has silently implemented a Short, but needed "break in period". For the first 72+ hours, my machine was...

I am right there with you on the cost of the the Surface Book 2 - For years I have always "held back" due to one financial restraint or another. This time around I had managed to save up for this one. Since it costs as much as a semi-decent used car, I am making absolutely sure that everything...

For awhile now on both my Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book 2 / any PC - whenever I would left click on an item, especially on the task-bar, whenever I would go to adjust the volume, or connect to a WiFi network - whatever, the menu would disappear. This would frustrate me to NO END. "When the pain...

As with many PC's that have a touchpad, the top, upper corners - will not depress, but you should be able to use the top portion to select, move, highlight etc.... At least mine works this way.

Yeah - no kidding on the LeNOGO PC's - I am an IT Guru for a company after they purchased a stockpile of Lenovo Laptops. They are good for grandmothers, Facebook and door-stops. Not much good for multi-anything.

Hey GreyFox7 - Thanks for your solid response. Your absolutely correct (of course) - I downloaded / installed the Intel Core Monitor and the other day upon boot-up, I observed the processor peak out at 4.2 for about 2 seconds. I was stoked needless to say. It's not often that I drop this kinda...

Hello Everyone - I am going to attempt NOT to sound like to big of a moron by asking this question, so please pardon me if I come across like an idiot. - - - I am an American Veteran living in Germany - So yesterday I ordered the Surface Book 2, 4,2 GHz, 16 GB RAM, 1 Terabyte - (I think its...

I have had to completely replace my Surface Pro 4 after a year of usage due to screen issues. Your issue however is something I have seen before. I am going to suggest that you.... 1) Download the latest Surface Pro 4 Drivers from Download Surface Pro 4 Drivers and Firmware from...

I had the same issue before, I installed the Surface App from the Microsoft Store then I went to the Bluetooth ADD / REMOVE area, and removed my PEN - Held down the Pen button until I got the blinking light and Re-Added it. Take a look at the pic - While you don't absolutely have to install the...

Please take a look at the attached picture to see what I am referring to. I understand what the Conhost does, I am just wondering the following........ 1) Does anyone else have this in their Startup Folder? 2) Has anyone disabled it and if so what are the results...

While jnRoach has it covered - you can also go here to get the Microsoft Update Tool - I find this useful if I have just reloaded a machine and want to go ahead and get all the updates taken care of. Download Windows 10

There are also about a gabillion after-market apps to protect files. I reccomend using the highest encryption your patience / PC can handle. Here are some links - use at your own risk as I cannot attest to any of the software posted here. Free File and Folder Protection Freeware downloads and...

I am really not being a smartbutt here - Does your Surface Pen go into pairing mode? Does the battery need replacement? I only ask because this happened to me. I dropped my pen one to many times and it stopped working all together. With a separate pen, I needed a new battery - once replaced, my...

If I dim the screen, use EDGE instead of Google Chrome, and stop all unnecessary services etc - I get 6-9 hours of use. If I run it full blast 3-6 hours dependent on what apps / software I'm running. Of course the SP4's Screen is the biggest drain, so turn that thing down as far as you can stand it.

With each of my computers I have 8Gbs of RAM or more. My personal opinion is - better to have and not need, then to.... Found this on the internet and thought it might be useful to some as a general guideline when considering RAM. More than 8GB of RAM serves no purpose other than to add heat...

Hey to each their own on returning items. The store is only going to RMA, or get a free replacement from the manufacturer anyway so it's not as though your sticking it to anyone but the "man". Over the last 3 decades I have replaced who knows how many keyboards and the story is always the same...

Just a thought - did someone perhaps spill something on your keyboard, or perhaps something got into it while in transport? I understand this wouldn't account for it working correctly during a re-installation / reset. Additionally - have you had an opportunity to try another keyboard? One...

I could kick myself in the teeth for NOT buying the 16 Gbs of RAM.... Comes down to that almighty dollar and the saying "happy wife, happy life". You are correct with the 16Gbs of RAM making a HUGE difference when it comes to heavy lifting. I have a ASUS gaming rig and it came with 8 GBS of RAM...

I feel you on the undecided part - its a tough choice when money is involved. What made it an easy choice for me is the overall versatility of the SP4 as opposed to a tablet. I have had a few tablets with Android over the years, and while they are nice to have, they just don't pack what a...
