    Computer's reliability and problem history

    I did a complete restoral of the system. Interesting startup. COMPLETLY different that the botched one when I opened the box. I posted in this post the bazar start up. This time, unlike last. It created a local account. It set up the 'Hello' Camera Log in Feature, and a few other items that did...

    Computer's reliability and problem history

    firefox user, but that is where most of the video driver failures occurred a few a days ago. 9 gig total, but big OneNote user and that syncs to OneDrive. Dropbox is large (100+ Gig) low access, and BOX is 20 Gig and spreedsheets and Docs for work. yes, meaning that I have a local copy of the...

    Computer's reliability and problem history

    First, Thank you - yes, check every hour it seems, but defiantly daily. Always seems to be a Windows Defender one daily. Interesting you say that, the 23rd, the day with no issues, I turned it on, connected to a dock, Monitor, Ethernet, keyboard and Mouse, and used Outlook, Excel, and WebEx...

    Dock - nothing but trouble

    Thank you, I think I might just try the full Monty here. FLAKY is what I have and would hate to do it in 4 weeks. Limited amount to back up, just a lot to reinstall With Respect To applications. My Surface Book is Day 6 with good days and mostly bad days.

    Computer's reliability and problem history

    I am new (again) to windows after a long departure to OSX. Want to love the Surface Book. I get that I investing the time in a 6 month old OS on a 1 month old hardware platform, but should this be concerning to me? Clicking 'Check for Solution' does nothing on any of them....

    Dock - nothing but trouble

    @msolok does the refresh really help? and should I do everything or keep files. I have two docks and they work OK, in the sense that they are no more flaky then the rest of the platform. I went to do the refresh (being a Mac person I can reinstall OSX at anytime and loose nothing) and was...

    Battery Performance

    Glad we had the chat... no idea that the new Power Supply was more powerful than the old one. I have been using the Dock and left the PS in the box, but WAS going to use the spare one I had with the Surface Pro 3, but not any more... THANK YOU!!!

    docked and screen down while powering on

    Any thoughts on why mine would be on? I think I like the clip board style, and using the Surface Book screen to take notes in OneNote and the monitor for the meeting, but learning where knobs are in Windows.

    docked and screen down while powering on

    @sharpcolorado is the monitor of the Surface Book on when you have it shut? Today's behavior is that I can power on with the clam shell shut as a laptop, but I just noticed that the Surface Book thinks I have two monitors; and when I peek in the gap I do see it on. Not sure if I like the...

    Battery Performance

    Thank you - got it on which is which, BUT, my Surface book uses BOTH batteries at the same time. Wish it did what you described as that would ROCK. let me grab the screen and go with a full battery unless the keyboard was depleted. Battery 1: 81% and Battery2: 93% after about 20 minutes on...

    docked and screen down while powering on

    I seem to be having many peripheral issues as what you described is not working for me. The ONLY way I can Take my Surface Book from the off state, connect to the DOCK which has a Ethernet, Monitor and Logitech wireless mouse keyboard, and power it on is have the screen in the inverted...

    docked and screen down while powering on

    Is there a setting that would allow me to have a powered off SB connected to a SB Dock, be able to turn on and use external monitor, and keyboards?

    Interesting Start up of my New Surface Book

    Leeshor, not sure how I got to a demo mode or why Microsoft could not get me out? This was the FIRST turn on. Before I thought of trying the DOCK to get an Ethernet connection I was ready to return the thing. With Respect To the Updates, doing that now. Some BIG ones, another hour of them, and...

    I just picked up my Surface Book i7/512G from BestBuy. LONG road to get to it, but happy to be leaving with the new computer. 11:24 I took a picture of the Box to shoot the series of un boxing (I know goofy) 1:34 I took a picture of the unit working...... 2 hours and 10 minutes. Turned the...
