Thank you so much for this. That makes sense.......I just couldn't grasp the concept!...

Hello esteemed members. I appreciate that my question will strike some as being somewhat childishly simple, but it genuine perplexes me! I have repaired several laptops before by removing a faulty capacitor that was short-circuiting the motherboard, whereupon the laptop would then work. For me, it begs the question that, if the current can bypass where the capcitor was when it has been removed, why didn't it just bypass it when it was present and faulty,? I can't get my head round the premise that if the other side of the capacitor is connected to ground, then why doesn't the current simply bypass...

I have searched extensively for either a schematic or a boardview for the Surface SE Laptop, without success. Can anyone help? Does one even exist?
Many thanks

Desperate to find, buy, purloin or even establish if a schematic or boardview for this laptop even exists!!
Many thanks

Delighted to be here.....hoping to learn enough to successfully fix one of the many laptops I have accumulated!

Here just trying to learn....delighted to make your acquaintances....
