Microsoft has just rolled out a new firmware and driver pack developed for its Surface Pro 3 tablet, which updates UEFI, Surface Integration, Network Controller, as well as other versions.

Specifically speaking, the October 28, 2014 update applies UEFI build 3.11.250.0, Embedded Controller (EC) Firmware 38.7.50.0, Surface Integration version 2.0.1168.0, and Intel 8 Series PCI Express Root Port 3 - 9C14 2.0.1151.0. Also, Surface Pro 3 devices will benefit from the 15.68.3059.117 Marvell AVASTAR network driver as well.

In order to clear things up, the new UEFI update improves system stability and graphics display performance, and it also adds a new status bar for applying future System Firmware Updates. Moreover, the 2.0.1168.0 Surface Integration update will ensure stability of Hibernate in Windows 10.

To continue detailing, while EC firmware version 38.7.50.0 increases sleep state transition reliability when a Docking Station is connected, Intel’s 2.0.1151.0 update fixes a issue where the wireless adapter wasn’t available after resuming from sleep.

Last but not least, the 15.68.3059.117 Marvell AVASTAR driver compatible with the Wireless-AC network controller and Bluetooth radio adapter improves throughput performance, lowers power consumption, and addresses instances of system instability.

Therefore, if you intend to increase your tablet’s overall performance, either wait for the new version to reach your device, as these updates are delivered in stages, or apply it right now by downloading the present package.

With this in mind, download Microsoft Surface Pro 3 Firmware/Driver October 28, 2014, install it on your device, and enjoy the new changes described above.
