The upper half is a very beautiful tablet with perfect proportions and a PixelSense touch screen with a diagonal of 13.5 inches and support for an electronic pen. Inside the base unit with a keyboard, there can be a discrete graphics chip, thanks to which the Surface Book outperforms any other portable computer in performance and an additional battery that allows you to use a computer for up to 17 hours in a row. These two components are connected with a hinge, which balances the design and at the same time easily detaches from the tablet. This feature and stylish design of the beech surface pretty spoiled Apple's blood. It is believed that the Surface Book is released as a MacBook killer, and it, indeed, in many ways surpasses them, especially the second iteration. Instructions for the restoration of the Surface Book after problems with the system 1) Find a flash drive with a capacity of at least 16 GB, smaller in size will not work! I advise you to take a flash drive with fast write speed, because there about 7 gigs will have to be written to it 2) Open the Recovery Disk program (located through the Windows search, it is installed on all computers by default) and use it to prepare a USB flash drive to create a recovery disk (it will just be necessary to pierce the Next several times, the program will do everything itself, the main thing - make sure that everything will be recorded on the necessary flash drive) 3) Download herefrom hererecovery for surf. Wind Surfs are slightly different from other computers, so we only download special for them from here. It is necessary to log in on the site so that the system immediately identifies the laptop, otherwise you will have to enter the serial number of the laptop. Choose the latest Windows version of the stable version, but there are previous builds too, if you want to roll back. 4) Extract all the folders from the downloaded archive to the USB flash drive prepared using the "Recovery Disk" with the replacement of files (like, 116 should be). Now the flash drive is ready for use, you need to prepare a laptop 5) Go to UEFI (turn off or restart the laptop, when turned on, until the Microsoft logo appears, keep the volume button up). In UEFI, go to the Security menu, there you need to disable Secure Boot (set the value to None) and the Trusted Platform Module. If everything is done correctly, then when you turn on when the logo will glow from above, a red bar with an open lock will appear. 6) Without leaving the UEFI Boot menu, you must enable booting from flash drives and in the same menu put the boot of the flash drive in the first place in the boot priority (you need to move the corresponding item to the top, but there are no animations, so you just have to wait a couple of seconds until the list updated, I did not immediately understand, moved or not) 7) Insert the USB flash drive and exit UEFI, the laptop will automatically reboot, the recovery menu will appear, select Install from drive (it’s like the first item of the two), then he will ask you to select just delete the files or delete it completely (if I'm correct I remember) 8) Next, wait for Winda to recover 9) After recovery, set up as when you first start 10) After setting we use a laptop That's all the instructions. Ask if questions will be In addition, do not forget to return everything to UEFI as it was, otherwise there will be a red bar at startup. And it is not safe, because anyone can then assign your laptop without any problems! It is important that for Surface with any problem with the laptop you can not use the usual images of Windows - some of the functionality will just disappear. There is no curator in the subject. For questions about filling the caps, contact the author of the topic in QMS (personal message) or to the section moderators via the buttonA complaintunder the messages. How to do it right, what would you understand the first time, well describedhere. Posted 12/30/2017 1:02 PM: I think that there are already a number of owners to discuss this device in a separate topic.

I think that even if the video card pulls at most, it will be enough for six or seven hours, even when working from the network, and even less autonomously. Adding a real Nvidia video card is the most exciting change for Surface Book 2 for me personally, along with Xbox Wireless support. Nvidia GTX 1060 supports VR games. Due to the nature of the 2-in-1 Surface Book 2, the Oculus Rift or HTC Vive are not officially supported. However, you can still use the latest Microsoft headsets for mixed realities for basic games. It's great if you're interested in basic VR experiences, but Surface Book 2 also handles the latest games other than VR. I played Overwatch, Battlegrounds PlayerUnknown and Destiny 2 on Surface Book 2, and it does an excellent job with all three. I use the Xbox One controller (no Bluetooth) on the go and just tie it in my bag next to book 2. Obviously, in a game like Destiny 2, you have to adjust settings or resolution to get a solid 60 frames per second, but even with my own resolution at medium settings, I received about 50 frames per second. This is quite solid for mobile games, and you can refuse permission if you need a more competitive advantage. One thing you will need to do is make sure that the power settings of Windows 10 are set for maximum performance, since for some reason Microsoft has set them for the best battery life, even if Surface Book 2 is connected. If you don’t configure This slider will then be throttled, and the frame rates will drop massively in games.

Already a week I go with the new surface laptop. Ask questions if interested, I can potestit how specific applications run on it, if you ask |

Local [offline] Group: Friendssavagemessiahzine.com Messages 142 Check in: 11.10.14 Xiaomi Mi A2 4/64 Reputation: 9 | steelroot I have the cheapest Intel Core i5 7200U 2500 MHz / 13.5 "/ 2256x1504 / 4Gb / 128Gb SSD configuration, and I think that it’s the one with 8g RAM that makes sense to buy, because I bought a beech or poppy for the price. I chose a very long time among different models. As a result, the choice fell between him and xiaomi Air 13. Bribed a much more durable battery and a 2k display without PWM that xiaomi sinned in. Bought in Moscow for 55k. First impressions were pleasant at once. The laptop is light and stylish. windows 10s. The first thing in the market was updated to 10 pro and I downloaded Russian Language pack. Windows hellow at first disappointed with slowness and mistakes, but the more you use it the more effectively it recognizes. Now she recognizes me in almost any position of the face relative to the camera. It works quickly and efficiently. Alcantara on the keyboard looks organic. Now about the display. I for a while it was specially like putting out the usual fHD to feel the difference. And you know, it was worth it. 2k display really looks much better and quickly get used to the good. And this is the only laptop with such a screen on the market for such money. Separately, I want to note the touch screen. Well, I do not digest the touchpad. I can not tolerate them and never knew how to use them. Already many times I mentally thanked myself for taking a laptop with a touch screen. Probably would not have survived without him. Is there life on 128g 4g? Yes, quite, with certain yuzkeysah. It was enough for me to take everything with me. I did not feel the lack of RAM even once, probably because I use stock ejem, which uses memory much more economically. Opportunities for the CPU, the built-in GPU is enough for the system to work without lags and video playback in native resolution. With games, everything is more complicated, everything strongly depends on the engine. I enjoy playing my favorite Age of Decadence, darkest dungeon, and everything in that spirit. Old games are going fine until 2008. Autonomy is very dependent on user cases. There is such a paradox - the laptop seems much less autonomous than the new MacBook, but on the new MacBook you can only view the movie and scroll the sites, here you can perform a much wider range of tasks and as a result it seems that the charge is leaking faster. On the downsides - proprietary charging is INCOMPARABLE. It is hard for her to get into the plug and it interferes when connected. If 4g frames are enough for me personally, I would like more memory. Sometimes nightmares that the laptop breaks. Where am I going to carry him then? However, when I bought, I fully weighed all the possible risks. But still very afraid of breakdowns. |

Does anyone have experience with special gadgets for this and the opportunity to compare with this subject? In this regard, it also interests how wide the possibilities of drawing are when the docking station is disconnected, because there is a discrete video card in it! Vollmond.inex, Well, just in case, does LepTop give a pen and does the pen work with it? -------------------- Asus tf300t, KatKiss 025, TWRP Lenovo VIBE X3, Sony xba-a1ap |

Some even change the pen on the Wacom. With a laptop pen does not go, but there is no problem to buy it at all. -------------------- It seems: you did not understand me at all ------------------------------------------ Motorola v50 ->Motorola V500 ->Motorola V650 ->Motorola Razr V3 ->Motorola Razr V8 ->Motorola XT5 Quench ->Motorola Atrix 4G ->Motorola Droid Mini ->Motorola G2 ->Motorola G5 Plus XT1681 |

And you did not answer: for what purpose did you take the laptop, especially in such a modest configuration? I've bought NVIDIA Surface Book 8/256 / GPU and I think that I won't be enough. Therefore, I re-ordered my Sandisk 200 Gb memory card to use as multimedia storage. -------------------- It seems: you did not understand me at all ------------------------------------------ Motorola v50 ->Motorola V500 ->Motorola V650 ->Motorola Razr V3 ->Motorola Razr V8 ->Motorola XT5 Quench ->Motorola Atrix 4G ->Motorola Droid Mini ->Motorola G2 ->Motorola G5 Plus XT1681 |

The best battery in this price category. 3. Touch Screen Something like this. Minuses are not significant for me personally. The maximum angle of inclination is 140 degrees. I probably have enough because it is not my main working machine. |

And how is your device doing with screen resolution matching? To put it mildly, it is extremely unexpected for any application. -------------------- It seems: you did not understand me at all ------------------------------------------ Motorola v50 ->Motorola V500 ->Motorola V650 ->Motorola Razr V3 ->Motorola Razr V8 ->Motorola XT5 Quench ->Motorola Atrix 4G ->Motorola Droid Mini ->Motorola G2 ->Motorola G5 Plus XT1681 |

The market is full of restored beeches of both generations. And restored as a microsoft and other actors. Basically, problems with the display and batteries. About laptops have not heard about the defects. Maybe the work on the bugs is over. -------------------- It seems: you did not understand me at all ------------------------------------------ Motorola v50 ->Motorola V500 ->Motorola V650 ->Motorola Razr V3 ->Motorola Razr V8 ->Motorola XT5 Quench ->Motorola Atrix 4G ->Motorola Droid Mini ->Motorola G2 ->Motorola G5 Plus XT1681 |

The most insane is a buggy Wi-Fi module that sometimes does not wake up after sleeping and which needs sometimes to be rebooted. I had the same bug on a windplant. There is still such a moment - the touchpad is inserted crookedly and one side sometimes, as it were, goes beyond the limits of Alcantara. This is all. At work does not affect. Fans work making low-frequency sound (squeak at maximum speed), this is also “normal”, in general, fans at maximum speed are turned on only in very difficult tasks, and even 4k loses on passive, only the fan off mechanism works strange - let's say the CPU warmed up well to 65 and the fans 5 minutes running at full capacity. After shutting down the application, the fans work until the temperature drops to 30 degrees, although there is no longer any load. Theoretically, this can be fixed by programs to control the operation of the fans. |

In general, half a year has passed and no less, while problems with the second beech surfaced almost immediately. I do not want to agitate anyone to buy at least due to the fact that there is no place to repair it in Russia, but at least we can say for sure from all the released devices that the melkosoft has so far been the least problematic. |
