A good plastic spudger tool and a little bit of isopropyl alcohol work WONDERS for this. Drives me CRAZY when a random family member asks me to look at their laptop and the whole palm rest is covered in those annoying stickers >< As for crapware, you get what you pay for.. Another reason to...

When it comes to Razer, I'll admit I'm a fan. My wife has a 2014 Blade Pro [formerly mine] and I own a 2015 Blade QHD, as well as a whole host of Razer keyboards, mice, a few headsets [NOT Kraken, HORRIBLE audio on those] I am also the happy owner of an i7 256Gb Surface Book. I do a lot of...

I sense a disturbance in the force: it's as if an uncounted mass of IT support techs suddenly slammed their heads to their desks repeatedly...

And every time you plug it back in you get it back. For everything else there's [no, not mastercard] onedrive! It's really not as bad as it may sound. Some days I SWEAR I'm the only person left in the world who shuts down their computer when away for extended periods. As to the rest of...

I was more referring to a general attempt to break into the premium/ultrabook/convertibles market, could probably have been more concise in my phrasing, however. You are correct, however, in that these horrible convertible implementations have been around WAY before the SB was announced. (more...

I'm starting to wonder about this. I had one issue early on with a corrupt driver, but aside from that my unit has been rock solid and stable. I'm sure I'm jinxing myself, but it's been over 2 weeks since I've had ANY issues [and that issue was the aforementioned corrupt driver] It's been...

You can do it 3 times: I did it once with Contacts, once with my prescription glasses, and once with my Gunnars. No issues logging in under any of my configurations. .. Unless I'm laying in bed, and then occasionally the angle messes with the sensor /shrug.

Sadly, my first instinct is to reply "yea, buy an iPad". Seriously, if Spotify pushed a Windows app I could probably go cold turkey on one device [well, ok. . add MK X to that and THEN I could go cold turkey] In lieu of Spotify, I use TuneIn Radio for those times when I wanna just let it play...

I couldn't disagree more with this statement, but honestly. . it's almost not worth it without the Nvidia GPU unless you REALLY have a need for the larger screen. the entry SB is essentially a larger SP4 in a less portable form factor. Yea, you'll get more battery life as a whole unit, but the...

Have you tried just uninstalling the driver and then restarting? Code 43: Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems From this, it looks like it's either the Driver or the GPU. I'd give it one shot to uninstall and let it fix, then I'd exchange. Restoring is a...

OEMs can't copy a good idea to save their business. They sacrifice too much in quality to keep the overhead down to maximize profits. Yea, that's a HIGHLY subjective statement, and I'll be the first to admit I'm INSANELY picky about my tech, but it's still true :P

iPad pro isn't a bad little piece of equipment, if you can get passed the whole no mouse/trackpad support thing. Having to use touch to copy/paste stuff in Excel sucks, but the rest of the experience is pretty fluid.

Link was in post #20, but in case you missed it: Surface Book: How to install updated NVIDIA drivers • /r/Surface It's not a simple fire and forget. First you have to modify the .ini with the program provided in the link above, then you have to disable verify driver signatures, then you have...

It hit 80 here yesterday [North Central TX] before the weather hit. As an added update, Diablo 3 Rifting hit the system a lot harder, was dipping down into the 35 FPS range, but it was a HUGE map and a Treasure Goblin one on top of it. At no time did it feel like it was stuttering or slowing...

Surface Book: How to install updated NVIDIA drivers • /r/Surface Found the link for ya. Involves modding an .inf file with an easy to use tool and then rebooting [disabling driver signature enforcement]. APPARENTLY once you've manually installed one driver, the future updates will allegedly...

there is a way, but you'll have to use your google fu. it involves a modded .ini to add the sb card to the list. I haven't attempted yet.

Just out of curiosity, is there anyone out there running 2 displays daisy chained via display port pass-thru instead of driving each independently from the dock? At the moment it's working from the SB integrated mini display port, but I know the dock has had multiple display issues. Figured...

pretty big glitch...

Honestly, I didn't either. I figured 5 FPS *TOPS*. I figured since I was returning everything in sight I may as well sate my curiosity, and I was shocked as heck. Since then I've tweaked my settings, disabling AA, dropping shadows to medium not smooth [D3] and been able to push above 1080...

Is this an incremental push out? I got a system HARDWARE update on the 17th [looked it up, it was related to keyboard issues] but no firmware update.
