Hey everyone, I googled for some SB2 rumors and they all say for a June release. I was curious if anyone agrees with that because of the sources and even though itll be less than a year I believe since the first SB? Also I read that Kaby Lake wont be out in time for that June release which I...

I'm an Industrial Designer and just got my SB last week (i7 / 512GB / 16GB RAM). Previously I did my digital sketching on a Wacom Cintiq attached to my laptop. I have some complaints about the SB's sketching quality compared to the Cintiq and wondering if there are ways to better optimize the SB...

Hi all, I purchased my SB i7/256/8 4 months ago. While it was buggy when I first got it, most issues seemed to have worked themselves out through updates. This morning before leaving for work, I noticed that the rear has a prominent bulge centering around Windows logo - it had been on for...

I use the Microsoft Surface Dock connected to 2 external monitors via mini display port to HDMI connection. I frequenter un-dock and dock my computer to go to meetings throughout the day. the problem i am having is that when i re-connect my Surface Book to the dock, the system does not come up...

I always took great care of my Surface Book, it is always either in my laptop case, on my laps, or on a desk. Today I was writing on OneNote as usual, then noticed something strange, a gap that is on the top right (when I portrait mode). I took a look and it scared the shit out of me, the entire...

I've been getting an error (see image below) whenever I disconnect and reconnect my Surface Book to my Surface Dock. My dock is connected to one Anker AH241 USB hub with only two devices plugged into it. Granted, my USB hub is a 13 port, but it never gave me errors when it was connected to a...

(feel free to move this topic to the General Discussion if this is not the right place) First, hello there ! I'm Raphael (yeah, can't stop using my weird pseudo because I'm definitely bound to it) and I'm fresh and new in this forum. Found a lot of interesting topics in there (I'm living in...

I'd read about this issue for the various Surface 2 and 3, but not for the Book. Did Microsoft not correct this problem for the Book? And how can I? I can't find another post here that discusses this issue. I feel I've missed part of my day, because the clock's been 45 minutes behind, and...

So relatively recently (1-2 months ago) I bought a Surface Pro 4, which I love. I would have bought a Surface Book, but they weren't available at the time - I am in New Zealand. Now they're available on a student deal, and I have a friend who'd be interested in buying my SP4. My SP4 is an i5...

Got an issue where my surface pen can open one-note, etc with the eraser button, but I am not able to use the pen to write. When I first powered on the device, my pen was in my suitcase and I skipped the first setup/pen pair process. Not sure if that is the core of my issue, but figured I...

My Surface Book is getting on my last nerve. Here's a few issues: 1.Sometimes when waking from sleep the entire keyboard and trackpad is non-responsive. I have to remove the clipboard portion and reseat it, then the keyboard is usable again. When waking from sleep the desktop seems to have...

Good evening Gents – I’m in need of a little assistance. I’m a proud Surface Book owner (Corei7/16GB/512) and today I (convinced?) my wife into letting me upgrade my old monitor to a 4k one (I picked up the Samsung U28E590 from Best Buy on sale.) I have spent the better part of 4 hours trying to...

Does anyone make a rugged case for the Clipboard? I'd love to take into the field with me, but not without protection.

As a new Surface buyer (Surface Pro 4 -- i5 8G 256 lot#1541), I cannot believe how long it has been for veterans of both this website & the Microsoft Community website, to share, ask & wait for a Pen Customization solution from Microsoft. :mad: Ever since the pen came about with the Surface...

I can get one display to function but not two at the same time and never when dock is initially attached upon IPL. Even to get a single external display to function through the Surface dock, I have to boot the machine w/o any displays attached, then disconnect the dock, re-attach the external...

I just switched my Surface Book Dock to dual mDP - DP cables and I cannot get my second monitor to work properly. I can see both in the Device Manager but not in the Display Properties. Both monitors work on mDP - HDMI, Help!!!!

It has been a month since the Surface Book became available. My i7/16/512 + 512SD has been used intensely at home, at work, and on three trips. The SB3 serves as my production machine for geophysics research, and entertainment device for music, live TV, streaming video, and for games with the...

Hello everybody, I searched for this but could not really find it anywhere please excuse me if I am mistaken. So I very recently(yesterday) got my Surface Book. My indicator switched on to white as long as I plugged it in and it started charging. I switched off the device last night (shut down)...

Anyone else having an issue with Surface Book showing, "These results my be incomplete" when you type in search for example, "Programs and Printers" then at the top shows these results may be incomplete. I actually had to restore the Surface Book because I was having issues and prior to this it...

So I am about to order the Surface Book 256/i7/8. And wanted to know some of your opinions. I have been looking around the past few days on this forum and as expected I saw a pretty good amount of issues being the 1st gen for this product. So far what I have seen is a not so good battery...
