So the problem I'm having with my surface pro 4 is that it dies when not connected to the AC adapter. Instantly as though...

Screen (lcd) has most likely failed.

Possibly damaged the flex cables on the screen during the replacement process or the button is just faulty.

The solid state drive has failed. Will need to replace and reinstall Mac OS

The antenna wouldn’t slow the wifi, especially if you’re consistently getting a strong connection. Try resetting your modem or router.

You will need to replace either the charging flex cable, as it houses a microphone, or the Proximity/Front camera flex cable. Depending on whether this issue is present while speakerphone is enabled or not.

Very fine tipped tweezers will help with retrieving it. Here is the link: Tweezers

Either the file system has failed, and needs reinstalled or Alternatively, the Solid State Drive has failed.

There are usually legal consequences that can be involved in these kind of situations. The computers are owned by the school or district and bypassing security measures without administrative permission could result in expulsion as well as legal ramifications as mentioned.

In my experience, in the cable area, its usually because the cables are not tucked in properly and will usually result in pinched/severed cables. Please take care to make sure the cables are moved into the proper position before applying too much pressure. Also please don't use glue, it makes future repairs extremely difficult. Tessa Double Sided red tape works wonders as well.

You could, but only if your not running high end modern gaming on high graphics.
