Windows 10 Preview on Surface Pro 3

[wynand32]

Just finished installing 19159. First thing that popped up is the 5/14 firmware update, even though I'd already installed the 6/23 firmware update. I just can't imagine what causes those things to keep showing up.

I ran the update for kicks. Wonder if it actually overwrite the newer firmware--although I doubt it, seems like it didn't actually do anything. Wish there was an easy way to check which firmware's installed.

Seems to have worked for me too. I was stuck on both my desktop and my SP3. Both immediately jumped to "preparing to install," implying that the update was downloading but just not showing progress.

Same

Since updating to 159, twice now upon a boot or reboot, my SP3 hangs on the black screen with the white "Surface" letters, just sits there. Both times I did CTRL+ALT+DEL and it immediately rebooted, this time getting to the black screen again but moving forward with the dotted white circle chasing itself.

Also I'm still getting the white flashes upon startup, but I wasn't really expecting them to be gone yet.

And yes, it does seem like it boots a bit quicker now.

installed the 6/23 firmware update manually a few days before the 10158 update now on 10159 getting told to download the 5/14 firmware. Will this overwrite the 6/23 firmware?

I'm not sure but the same thing happened to me. Installed the June firmware update manually in 130, then the May one showed up in Automatic Updates multiple times after. Then again after landing on 159.

I'd love to know as well. I'm guessing it has enough intelligence built into the installer to skip if the firmware is the same or older version. I know that when the update runs, there's no indication during the reboot that anything is actually done. Same when manually reinstalling the 6/23 firmware as I did earlier today.

Can you tell me pls, how you updated it manually?

You can download the June firmware from Microsoft's website. A link was posted maybe 4 pages back.

still no 159 update this morning.
Well installed 159 via ISO (from 130 in VM) and made a clean install.

Now my question... there is no Data Migration service built in win10 yet... is there? Just some kind of Backup where you can save all you folders but nothing about windows settings / installed non metro apps.

FINALLY!!

I must have hit Check For Updates at least 100 times since 158 came out. Nothing, nada.

Did it again a few moments ago and now downloading 159...

Can I have your 158 then?
