I'm forced to do a hard reboot by holding the power button down for 10 sec to regain access to my machine," a Surface owner stated on the official Microsoft support forums. ![]() I can feel a vibrate when I push the Windows button, but that's it. "The problem is simple: let the device go into sleep/standby. Fortunately, the fix is pretty easy and involves making a minor adjustment to your power settings. I moved to Mac in 2001 and have not once had a problem.For those of you who own a Microsoft Surface Pro, another issue has been going around regarding the device not being able to wake up after it enters sleep mode. What amazes me is that it's the most un-secure, buggy OS ever designed, yet hundreds of millions of people use it. If Microsoft hasn't started writing a new modern OS from scratch by now, they're dead. And he paid $4000 for it lol jeez what a bozo I never say, "you stupid fool- you shouldn't have bought that POS cheap garbage in the first place" that would be cruel, I let them figure it out the hard way for themselves- As the original idiot who bought into the surface hype did- I just think it. I moved to a mac, sorry I can't help you!". I just love it when someone, knowing I'm a techy, asks me to fix some annoyance on their Windows machine and I reply "I stopped using PC's after XP. Until then its just the one of many annoyances I have to deal with at the office. I'm looking very much forward to retiring in one year, so I will never ever have to use a Windows based computer ever again. Oh wait, I'm not really THAT surprised there is minimal Quality Control or basic testing done at MSFT is there, we are beta testers duh. Its hard to believe that MS can still not fix such elementary school things like this work. I don't know why it is I guess it has to do with crappy HW quality and the kernal Windshit OS. I don't suppose he will be buying another Surface? HE WOULDN'T BE THAT STUPID WOULD HE? And he paid $4000 for it lol jeez what a bozo. At least they won't inflct any more damage on the more gullible users who might fall for their sales tactics! I'm glad that Microsofts Mobile strategy is failing. ![]() This problem which is one of 1000's that Windows has is the reason why consumers are buying macs in droves and moving to mobile devices that actually work. I'm looking very much forward to retiring in one year, so I will never ever ever ever have to use a Windows based computer again. Its hard to believe that MS can still not fix such elementary things like this work. In fact I have owned several pc laptops over the years and invariably they start exhibiting this behavior. Do you have peripherals attached.? It might be the same issue. I bet the memory manager has corrupted the cursor address and so on wake it can't figure out what to wake up freeze, or goes off to some address that leads to a freeze. I'd wager the kernal has "forgotten" where the cursor is after sleeping. Putting a windows system to sleep is akin to death. The windows memory Manager is a complete and utter mess of obfuscated code, read: It can't really unfrag its heap or anything else for that matter. Those buffoons at MS prolly are still using the desktop Windows kernel with the Surface and trying to get it to work with all that old crappy code. Opening the laptop necessitates a complete hard reboot to get any response from the peripherals because experience (years of trial and error) has told me it thinks there are no peripherals attached when the display is opened up. ![]() What I do is make sure I never open the display, but only move the attached mouse or press a keyboard key to make the external display respond. I have narrowed the problem down to it being an issue with the interrupt system in Windows. I have a similar same problem with the POS Lenova Laptop I am forced to use at work.
