    How to charge SP4 via portable powerbank?

    FYI, I looked into a few of the products you recommended in the links above. The Anker Astro Pro 2 is not capable of 12V 2A required to charge a Surface Pro (it maxes out at 12V 1.5A) - a few reviewers pointed this out. Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Anker 2nd Gen Astro Pro2 20000mAh 4-Port...

    Touch Screen is Too Often Unresponsive

    I notice the same problem tapping on links and buttons. My Surface Pro 3 seems more responsive. I also notice that the task switcher (swipe from left edge of screen) pops up by accident all of the time when I'm just scrolling a webpage with my left hand.

    Disable contrast enhancement on SP4

    Interesting find. I set \HKLM\Software\Intel\Display\igfxcui\Media\EnableACE and the entry next to it to 0x0. It might have worked. Do you have a test case to see if the contrast is changing? I tried setting my display background to black, then switched to battery power, then I moved a white...

    This isn't working for me either. Too bad, because this is very cool.

    Surface waking from sleep & Windows Hello issues

    I installed the firmware update for the graphics driver tonight. The driver is the same version as the beta... More great news! I had to perform a hard reset tonight (post updates), because my Surface wouldn't wake up. I really enjoy losing all of my work at random intervals. Spice of life...

    Surface waking from sleep & Windows Hello issues

    I'm having this issue on my i7 SP4. I tried all the fixes and driver updates. I reverted back to stock graphics drivers and turned off Windows Hello. This is a real problem and I am strongly considering returning the device. The least MS could do is acknowledge the problem. Even better would...

    Sustained High CPU Usage is Back

    I solved this problem by doing: "I was finally able to solve this on my Surface Pro 1 after my Win10 upgrade by disabling the "Sdo Sensor V2" under "Sensors" via Device Manager." Windows driver foundation constantly using cpu I hope this helps someone else!

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    Does the mini-displayport on the dock work for your device with Windows 10? It doesn't for me, but does with Windows 8.1.

    How To: Install latest Intel Graphics Drivers

    I needed Intel Reference drivers in order to access the Intel Graphics Panel. The driver will refuse to install unless a few items are modified. I followed an excellent tutorial on how to do this and thought I'd re-share the process here. Instructions here ---->...

    Intel Iris HD5000 Driver update (15.36.18.64.4156 = 10.18.10/14.4156)

    Try using F.LUX's 'safe mode'. This fixed issues I had with stuttering while using F.LUX.

    Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

    I had to do the same last time I installed Windows 10. This time I partitioned 70Gb of the SSD for Windows 10 and am able to dual boot Windows 8.1 and 10 without dealing with Hyper-V. Anytime I have a problem with Windows 10, I just reboot into 8.1.

    4K not working on Samsung U28D590D

    Buy the Dell P2715Q instead. It's IPS and not much more money ($550 online). I returned this Samsung panel because the color shift introduced by the TN panel was very distrating.

    Mirror Screen to Amazon FireTV

    The Miracast spec requires a WiFi direct connection between source (SP3) and sink (FireTV). In other words, it isn't using an existing WiFi connection, it is required by the spec to make a new peer-to-peer WiFi direct connection between the two devices. One thing that could cause interference...

Maybe your situation would be improved if you install the Intel reference graphics drivers for the Surface. Do a search in this forum for Intel Graphics Drivers to find instructions on how to...

    Surface Docking station issues

    Same issues here as well. I'm very surprised that this isn't a priority for the Surface team to address.
