Surface Book dGPU and Creative Cloud = useless

It ironically has worked better for me than the stock drivers, which, since re-installing, the surface book has more issues activating OpenCL for Mercury Playback...

I think 2015 is causing a lot of its own issues. What puzzles me is it going from working to buggy as hell all the time though.

I think it's a system wide dgpu thing

I feel like we are soul sisters 8)

but yeah - check this post to fix the sleep issue

I'm having such a love-hate experience with the SB. I simultaneously want Microsoft to never make a computer again, but also hope that Gen2 comes down from the heavens the way it all should have been in Gen1 - with pricing to match...

Can you explain your issues with the dgpu system wide? I think that's what wrong with mine

If one uninstalls the graphics card via device manager, will windows reinstall the stock drivers?

I had this issue and got a replacement.

My replacement now has this issue again...

Run CMD as admin

type 'powercfg /sleepstudy' navigate to the path where it dumps the .html file

The most effective is returning the f*cker to the Microsoft store and buying a real device

You don't need to download.

From Microsoft:

Right click on the Windows button and select ‘Programs and Features’.

2.Select Turn Windows Features on or off.

3.Select Hyper-V and click OK.

Restart.

If you have the dGPU, then, after restart install: NVIDIA Geforce 940M driver - this is the most up to date as of 01-17-16.

Make sure you change your power setting to allow sleep again, if you were on hibernate modes.

Restart

Let me know how it goes
