Surface Pro 3/Windows 10 Fan Fix (For me at least)

[Michael Goff]

I ended up reading somewhere that the microphone is the issue. I went, and turned it off, and everything seemed to get better. It is smoother, the fan hasn't kicked on yet, and I'm thinking it might help out with the battery life issues I've had.

I have to ask why, but at the same time I'm just glad it seems to have worked.

Now that you mentioned it, I've not heard the fan ramp up as much on my SP3 running windows.
Overall, I'm happy with the SP3, its a handy little computer
