Just checked, not an insider. The way MS spaces out cumulative updates has been leading to wild guessing since the free windows 10 upgrade program. I've seen to rational reason as to why some people get them sooner than others. Here's my updates since I'm not sure which cumulative update...

I sometimes use paint programs in tablet mode and ended up getting a blue tooth keyboard for that an many more problems associated with using a laptop with out a keyboard. Not an elegant solution but it solved my problems. would using the picture sign in be faster? I've personally never used...

I got it on monday I believe. Have you still not received it? I'm not in any insider program.

I can't find any information about what's in the surface system update.

There's a handful of typos in your reply and I"m not sure if I'm understanding your directions. When windows is loaded I held down the volume rocker up (+) and while holding it up and held down the power button. This after about 8 seconds rebooted my computer and put it in uefi menu EDIT: The...

Excellent. I'll give that a try in the morning.

EDIT: I downloaded and ran the Surface Diagnostic Toolkit that MS provides and it appears to have fixed the problem. When ever my SB2 15 inch wakes up from hibernation or reboots my graphics card disappears from the list in the device manager and all programs default to the lintel graphics...

Is there a fix for the nvidia control panel no longer existing?

I wouldn't have noticed I didn't have a gpu until I heard my fan spinning hard. Intel graphics has a hard time running a video upscaled to 4k on its own.

Device manager shows my dGPU but I still can't install the update but that will still tide me over until the fix for this problem since I don't need the newest driver for now. Thanks for the tip!

I can't install a driver and it doesn't appear in the device manager. I'm such an idiot for updating to the creators update day one.

The Timbuk2 Spire is my personal favorite backpack and it fits the surface pro 2 15 inch like a glove. It's a medium sized backpack so your not going to fit everything you own in it. You can fit everything for your surface and a couple medium sized 3 ring binders with some room to spare. It has...

I'd get a good light in there and make sure that the magnet hasn't sucked up a small metal file that's causing a short.

I had a mouse that did this too. You can toggle a device so that it no longer has authority to wake up your computer. It's a bit of a pain but it will solve your problem. https://www.howtogeek.com/122954/how-to-prevent-your-computer-from-waking-up-accidentally/

Yeah I even reformatted/reinstalled and let windows try to install the display adapter and it couldn't. On the plus side the replacement SB2 has a better CPU than my old according to hwinfo.

Brought it in to the Microsoft Store at University Village. Confirmed dead GPU and they swapped it out. I can't remember what my color profile was and I'm going a little nuts.

I got a blue screen today "system thread exception not handled" which is graphics card related error. After the reboot I immediately tried to install the latest drivers. They wouldn't install stating that compatible hardware could not be found. Checking my device manager the mobile graphics...

I was trying to hook up my SB2 15 to my projector. I always switch the FPS to a multiple of 24 in order to reduce judder and noticed to my surprise that there were no options for this. I looked in the display adapter properties and list all modes like usual and only multiples of 30fps are...

I might have to start using it. I haven't cottoned to edge and Chrome is completely out of control with battery life and RAM. EDIT: Firefox fills a gig of memory just starting it. I suppose it's my expectations that need to be changed. I'll keep using it to see how I like it. Migrating...

That really sucks. I have not had those problems. Outside of benchmarks I can't tell the difference personally.
