Surface Pro 3 - completely dead

My Surface Pro 3 has died after two years, I've tried all the 'wake-up' fixes, still nothing. Very unhappy if this needs to be replaced, it seems a lot of money for two years use. Can anyone help or suggest a reasonable repair service in Central London?

    Sorry to hear that! I imagine eventually it will happen to all of us. The breaking part. I refuse to buy another one. I use mine now for the portability. I hope in two years you do not find your new one is having the same issue. With the upgrades I would expect them to have improved upon the design. Unless it is truly a flaw designed to encourage the purchase of a new product. In any case, best of luck to you!

    It worked for me as well! Thanks! However, I am not so sure if NEVER SLEEP will do the trick? Guess it will need something like NEVER DIE?

    Thank you! Worked here too!

    Great to hear that, spread the word to save people money and to embarrass Microsoft into producing better products.
