Windows 10: Powering Up New Computer

I have my new machine now and am about to hit the power on button. Have looked at a few out.of.the.box start/setup vids. Looks to me there is a choice to create an account or to use a MS account. What is recommended or the pro/cons? -thx

New computer, total power failure

Hi,

To resolve the battery issue, we suggest that you follow the steps below:

Method 1: Check your battery saving settings. There’s a chance that the Anniversary Update somehow changed your battery saving settings.

To increase the battery life of your device, check if your power plan is alright.

• Go to Settings > System > Power & sleep >
  Additional power settings.
• Check the brightness settings by going to Settings >
  System > Display

Method 2: Check if your drivers are updated. Battery drain issue can also be due to some drivers not fully compatible with the Anniversary Update. It’s important to have all your drivers updated, to prevent battery drain issue and other problems.

Moreover, if the issue persists, we suggest that you contact your Cube 2-in-1 tablet computer's manufacturer for further assistance.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Power issue in new Windows 10 computer

Hi Mr PV,



Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



Inconvenience regretted. As it’s a new computer there must be something related to hardware, as it is under warranty, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer for further assistance.

Before that run Power troubleshooter and check if the issue persists.

• PressWindows + X key.
• SelectControl panel.
• In the search box, typeTroubleshooter and then clickTroubleshooting.
  
• Click on Power and Click on
  Next button.

Regards.
