Not impressed

[reelnative]

bought a surface 3, I am one of the most patient person you could meet but I want to snap my 3 in halve and throw it out the window! The touch seen is so unresponsive, I keep tapping but nothing happens at times, it is frustrating and have searched for updates/answers to fix it, does anyone have a suggestion or tips?

Have you applied all of the updates including the one released this week? Are you running Windows 8.1 or 10?

 

[Plantje]

Very likely that the system is currently looking for and installing upgrades.

ESPECIALLY the Anniversary Update.... make sure you take time to have all of the updates/firmware installed first. Then report back on the performance here.

May need to confirm the OP is qualified as at least a power user lest the assumption is made they already know those things have, are occurring. A lot casual, retail (think Apple [g]) expect stuff to "just work" with little or no intervention.

Even iOS devices need constant software updates too, but very clever. Respect.

Sorry, but do I understand this correctly? If you buy a Surface 3 you can't expect things to "just work"? Then you should have bought an iPad? What a load of *****

I have the same issue and have had this issue since I update to win 10. When using Chrome I sometimes cannot even close a tab or interact with the page. Everything is up to date so you cannot blame it on software updates. I have to use the track pad, mouse or pen to close the page or gain control.

Did'ja see the wink? No, I guess not. Oh yeah, BTW, it's a forum board. Knotted knickers and all that.

 

[Plantje]

Yes, I did see the wink. Wasn't sure if you we're being sarcastic. I'm not a native English speaker.... Please bare with me

You can go bare if you like LOL, I will not go bare with you... but we will bear with you...
Is it "bear" or "bare" with me?
English is so weird.

I understand your concern to invite bears to join with you though.

 

[Plantje]

Haha! Yes, I was in doubt there and the "bear" variant seemed too "animally" for me. Wrong choice. I'm not the Brokeback mountain kind of guy
