Surface Pro 4 - Login Issue

scottalanmiller

Honestly sounds like a software or hardware issue. This is brand new? Factory install or image?

@scottalanmiller That's not helpful =P

Neither are Surfaces

Alex Sage

@scottalanmiller Yes, New. About 1 week old.

Imaged, but we have a bunch of them already deployed with the same image in Germany. There are our first in the states.

Kelly

Is this on first login? Is it creating his local profile?

Minion Queen

We have never used one with bitlocker on it so not sure if that might be the issue?

So images but tested. Any chance that the US build is not identical and needs a different driver?

Should not be since it asked for the regular password. It couldn't do that unless Bitlocker was working.

Alex Sage

@Kelly No, the user has logged in before. No roaming profiles.

Oh, this isn't the first login, it stopped working after the first login?

Alex Sage

@scottalanmiller Correct.

gjacobse

have you done a 'reset' From what I remember the Surface doesn't 'shutdown'. you don't want to do a hard reset,.. just a nominal reset.

And the SP4 has all the patches and firmware updates installed? They're a bit broken out of the box.

Highly Unlikely. We deploy 2 others at the same time that are fine.

Alex Sage

@Kelly Correct, we do all available updates before deploying.

@scottalanmiller Correct.

What about reimaging?

Kelly

Crashing right after login is usually a profile or GP issue. Have you tried nuking his local profile, or checking your RSOP on the machine?

Alex Sage

@scottalanmiller The surface is 2 hours away

At least it isn't in Germany.

@Kelly How? I have no connection to the device, until the user connects to the VPN, and the VPN can not be used, because the user can't login....
