This section outlines the support options available for your Surface Pro 3 devices. TheĬover is compatible with the Surface Pro 3 Docking Station, allowing use of the keyboard even when docked. The Surface Pro Type Cover provides protection for the screen when not in-use and a physical keyboard when open. Note: The Surface Pro 3 Docking Station gigabit ethernet port uses the same chipset and connectivity as the SurfaceĮthernet Adapter and is subject to the same limitations regarding MAC address. Therefore, it is possible to connect two external monitors to a single Surface Pro 3 using the docking station Mini DisplayPort and the Mini DisplayPort from the Surface Pro 3 device.
This allows for an additional USB device to be connected and for the Mini DisplayPort to be used even when the Surface Pro 3 device is docked. The design of the Surface Pro 3 Docking Station leaves both the USB 3.0 and Mini DisplayPort on the Surface Pro 3Ĭhassis unblocked. It can also be anchored by using a provided security slot for Kensington locks. The Surface Pro 3 docking station includes 3 USB 3.0 ports, 2 USB 2.0 ports, Mini DisplayPort for connectivity to an external monitor, a gigabit ethernet port for connectivity to a wired network, and a 3.5mm audio input and output jack. The Surface Pro 3 Docking Station provides a stand for Surface Pro 3 devices that includes a power connection andĪdditional connectivity for devices. A notable example of this is System Center Configuration Manager, as mention ed in One user told me that his Surface Pro 3’s heat issues went away after the system installed its initial batch of updates.Note: Because the Surface Ethernet Adapter has a fixed MAC address, if you share the adapter among multipleĬomputers, this may cause some issues for software that identifies computers by MAC address. As Neowin reported earlier this week, some users managed to cool the system down by killing Windows Installer Module and Windows Installer Module Worker in the Task Manager. It’s possible that some of the heat issues-which users said would occur even during light computing tasks-are related to Windows updates that Microsoft applies in the background. “We have an update that will address this that will be ready for our customers as soon as possible.”
“Our investigation reveals that the system is triggering this event sooner than it should for some people, only when the device restarts, and this does not occur when the device is booted and running,” Microsoft said. But what about users who’ve experienced a temperature warning icon on the screen? Microsoft said a software bug is actually triggering this warning by accident, and only on a “very small number” of Core i7 models.
