This is bigger code but it works perfectly where you don't take the original row but find all the duplicate Rows

    select majorTable.RowID,majorTable.Name,majorTable.Value from 
    (select outerTable.Name, outerTable.Value, RowID, ROW_NUMBER() 
over(partition by outerTable.Name,outerTable.Value order by RowID)
     as RowNo from @Your_Table outerTable inner join
    (select Name, Value,COUNT(*) as duplicateRows  FROM @Your_Table group by Name, Value 
having COUNT(*)>1)innerTable on innerTable.Name = outerTable.Name 
    and innerTable.Value = outerTable.Value)majorTable where MajorTable.ROwNo <>1
