    Dolphin Emulator settings for SP3?

    What game are you running. I know that some games have sound issues that are tied to processor emulation. For example Wind Waker was not playable on my SP3, but does fine on the i7 SB.

    Surface Book - Enough is Enough - Back to Apple I go.

    I think your expectations are a little out of line. I have never had any device that never had a problem. My iPhone 6 plus freezes on occasion, apps crash to the springboard at least once or twice a day. My Lenovo laptop has blue screened more than once. Expecting a high tech device to never...

    Surface book screen popping sound

    I would 100% open a case with surface support about it. That way even if you decide not to replace it now you will have documentation that it existed when the device was new.

    Surface Book - Enough is Enough - Back to Apple I go.

    The thing is that not everyone is having the same experience you are. I have been using my SB as my daily driver since I picked it up on launch day, and have had only 1 Blue Screen (my 4 year old was drawing on it so he may have done something strange anyway). I have also only had the graphics...

    Are you on a network with any restrictions? I run a pretty loose web filter here at work, but if I forget to exempt myself the app store becomes unusable.

    Does microSD 256GB or any other higher than 128GB is supported?

    Currently there are no legitimate cards with capacities these high. I would be very skeptical of any card above 128GB the highest legitimate card I know of is 200GB and these are not scheduled for release until Q4.

    Is Continuum Ready?

    I checked out the windows 10 preview when it first came out, but use my sp3 as a tablet to much for that first version to be worth my time. I was wondering if any of you currently using it can bring me up to speed on if Continuum has been implemented and if it is useful enough for another shot...

    Cleaning the SP3 keyboard.

    We had a rollover accident the other day and a cup of soda flew all over the car including my SP3 keyboard. Everything works, but the keys are super sticky. I have tried removing a few but they are extremely difficult to get on and off. Does anyone have any tips for cleaning the keyboard?

    Undervolting Revisited

    A few months ago there was a lot of talk about undervolting and the potential it had to reduce throttling. I was wondering if anyone here has been running an undervolted SP3 as their primary machine and if so how much of an increase in performance are you seeing?

    Original charger vs Ebay 3rd party chargers

    Just a tip, if there is anything wrong with your charger chat with MS support and they will send you a new one. They do not require you to send back the old one either so no time waste for you.

    You need to change your device resolution to the target resolution before starting the game. This will resolve the letter-boxing issue in a number of games.

    As I think may already have been stated. The biggest reason to update is in order to have feedback into the final version.

    SP3 @ Starbucks

    I take mine out in public almost every day. For some reason the staff the the Vietnamese restaurant where I go love it and knew exactly what it was. Each time I go a different staff member gets excited by it.

    Google Hangouts Kills Battery

    I did a google hangout for a work conference meeting yesterday, and it absolutely destroyed my battery. My estimated time went down to 1:30 on battery bar and it pegged the CPU at 50% for the duration. Any idea on why this is such a battery killer?
