A non-IT professional shared a practical case of using Claude Code to troubleshoot PC issues. After experiencing extremely slow boot times, they described the problem to the AI, which accurately identified that the RAM was retraining itself on every boot.
Following the AI's advice to change "Memory Context Restore" from Auto to Enabled in the BIOS, the boot time dropped from 127 seconds to just 10 seconds. The author noted that this workflow is highly effective for resolving niche issues that lack solutions online.
