There's one last step you can take. If these steps don't resolve the problem, service and support options may be available to assist you.
Send to Microsoft
To prepare your device for shipping to Microsoft, you can print a shipping label, check your Microsoft warranty, and create service orders.
Find in-person support
Currently China, India, and Japan have in-person support available—which can include professional hardware inspection, troubleshooting, and system recovery.

If you're technically experienced and have the right tools, Microsoft has a select range of replaceable components and service guides that enable you to perform the repairs.
