I live in Canada. There are Microsoft stores in 3 provinces. The closest one to me is 1600+ km away, I don't have the option of going to a "different Microsoft store". Piece of crap.

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?

My machine would not start so I tried this above solution:
Pressing the ON button while trying to bend the machine from the left and right hand corners worked.
Amazed with the solution, reminded me of very old BW TV's that we had to slap to turn them on.
its 18/01/2019.

2018-12-13T23:31:01+00:00 All i did was push the screen in hard on the upper left corner by the power button and i pressed the power button. Reason i had it sitting in the drawer is because when it died back in june, i tried every method possible and it would not turn on. I needed a computer especially one with a lot of important files trapped inside. So i had no choice but to buy a new computer(MACBOOK PRO). And i will never ever be another Microsoft computer. They didnt stand by this issue that a lot of people had to deal with. A computer that cost me $1300 or whatever it was should not only last 2 years lol. THEN they want 600 for a replacement, F outta here with that.
