Yes, still going strong. No problems whatsoever. Only tackle it if you have an eye for detail and confident taking electronics apart though. It's one of the harder repairs to carry out.

Managed to buy a broken base (usb and battery not working) from a standard model and removed the keyboard and put into my performance base. Not easy, but it's working fine and was successful. For anyone interested. Remove all the keys. Get inside the base unscrew everything, take the graphics...

Will do. I might see if can buy some suitably sized self-tapping screws just in case too.

OK, many thanks. I have a keyboard base from a standard Surface Book and am hoping to try and remove this to fit into mine with the Performance Base which is thicker. I've removed the black plastic backing and refitted and keyboard works fine still, so appears is just a liquid barrier. What a...

Hi Luca. What method did you use to remove the rivets? I have a keyboard to remove from a broken spare base, to fit into another. They are difficult to remove I find? thanks.

I should probably explain, because I can't access Windows Settings as it doesn't exist, I can't use the Factory Reset from within Settings > Update and Recovery. I have to reboot and install a fresh install using Shift Key & Clicking Restart at login screen.

Yes, so just opened the box and followed instructions to setup. First thing I did was click on settings icon and nothing happened. Looked in event viewer logs and errors are relating to settings and edge crashing basically. Ran Surface Diagnostics App which didn't find any problems. Downloaded...

Fresh Install, but new Surface Book won't open Windows Settings. Other issues that seem related - can't even use right click on desktop to get into Display Settings, as I get an error saying ms-settings:display doesn't have an associated program. Cortana won't respond/open any Microsoft native...
