    Can´t upgrade windows 8.1 to windows 10 in Surface Pro 3

    Hi

    I have a Surface Pro 3 that came with Windows 8.1 installed. I am trying to upgrade it to Windows 10 and installation stops close to the end. I read some related articles in the community and followed most of the suggestions, but it still won´t install. Is the Windows 10 upgrade still free? Any spefic issues or recommendations to Surface Pro 3?

    Many thanks

    Felipe
     
  3. Surface Pro 4 screen not turn on after sleep

    Hi, thank you. I could restart my surface pro 4 but still could not fix the Surface Pro 4 screen not turn on after sleep. I am still looking forward to hearing more suggestions to fix the black screen after sleep.

    Surface Pro 3 won't turn on

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

    We understand how you feel about the situation. We're sorry for the trouble.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check, if it helps:

    If you still have the device, please let the device charge at least 2 hours and do the 2-button shutdown one more time to see if you can turn on the device.

    • A 2-button shutdown
      • Press and hold the power button on your Surface for 30 seconds.
      • Press and hold the Volume-up button and the
        Power button on your Surface at the same time for at least 15 seconds, and then release both. The screen may flash the Surface logo, but continue holding the buttons down for at least 15 seconds.
      • After you release the buttons, wait 10 seconds.
      • Press and release the power button on your Surface to turn it back on.

    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help
