Windows 10: Suface Book Display/Freezing

Wow,


I wrote this big paragraph about how my display was messing up and... wow, it all got deleted. Ugh. Ok, I'll rewrite what I said and make it quick so hopefully this won't happen again before I can post my problem.


Hi everyone! Please help me with my computer


My computer keeps freezing and having display problems. I have attached two pictures that happened literally within the last hour. When the freezing occurs, the computer does make this small buzzing type noise.


I'm not completely computer illiterate so I have done the following:

Scanned for viruses - nothing

Checked for windows updates - latest updates already installed

Used SFCcannow thing in CMD but no problems

Ran a memory test - all good

Ran chkdsk - it did find errors, corrected them but still having the issue

I have not installed anything new lately

Did a reset on the computer (the kind where you keep all your files but just "refresh" the system)

Even with all of the above, the issues continue.


Also, does anyone notice their surface book display getting super hot? I know computers get warm but is it normal for this computer to get HOT?


Below are my specs:

Suface Book specification on battery-operated pen

Original title: Suface Book Pen

I am excited about the upcoming surface Book. However, it has a battery-operated pen. My experience with these was that they didn't operate for very long. Given that I use pen input almost exclusively, that was a bummer for me. Does someone know:

• how long the pen's charge lasts on average?
• if the pen's battery (My father and I assume it to be a AAAA-size one.) is rechargeable?
• if the eraser at the top (by flipping the pen) works globally (e.g., with Tablet PC Input Panel and Office 2016 for the desktop) or if it works only with the Metro OneNote interface?

Notes:

• I have used N-trig's technology
  only once thus far.
• I hope that the pen experience on the Surface Book is better. At $3,199 apiece, the purchase of a Surface Bock would be quite disappointing if I have to charge my pen every 5 minutes (as an example) (if it is rechargeable). If Best Buy and / or Staples
  gets a floor model in, that might be beneficial for testing the pen input.

 

Phone book causing my e71 to freeze

I have a Nokia E71 and it regularly freezes when I access the phone book. On occasions when it doesn't freeze it can take five or ten seconds to display the details of a contact.

Any suggestions?

 

all games crash!

I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
What happens?
If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
What X1800XT model do you own exactly?
