  • Where's the SB2 firmware love?
  • These are not new, I've had them installed since the 14th.
  • Wow. I never realized my SP4 was so unstable.
  • A word of warning. These popped up on my SP4 this morning. They were downloading and installing in background when everything went dead - as if the power had been cut, no actual shutdown sequence. It was then totally unresponsive for about 30 minutes - wouldn't turn on, seemingly dead. It only came back when I removed the attached Surface hub. Then re-booted and installed everything OK. You might want to remove any Hub or USB peripherals.
  • Just updated my wife's SL without issue while attached to the Dock. If you haven't already done so, you might want to verify your Dock has the latest firmware using the Surface Dock Updater tool.
  • So still no pen tilt on the SP4..... *sigh*
  • Thank you God. They finally updated the ancient iGPU drivers from March 2017, pre-Creators Update support! I though Microsoft forgot about the SP4. Now it has the 2nd newest driver Intel launched, dated from May 2018, the newest is from July.
    Now the irony is ... given that Skylake through the newest refresh for Coffe Lake whatever with 9900K will STILL be the same tech, Intel is pretty much required to still update all of them.
  • Hope this improves the keyboard reliability on my Surface Pro (2017) while removing the keyboard cover.
  • Did NOT improve stability. Now I lose internet connection overnight and have to restart every day. After extended sleep mode overnight attached to dock; SP4 i7 via ethernet.
