Example Output
Example 1: Diagnostic Workflow (Laptop Power Issues)
[POWER_ON_FAIL]
├─ Check AC adapter
│ ├─ LED indicator lit? → YES: Proceed to next step
│ └─ LED not lit? → Replace adapter, verify laptop powers on
├─ Hold power button 30 seconds (discharge capacitors)
├─ Press power button (observe lights/fans)
│ ├─ Lights/fan activity? → Proceed to BIOS diagnostics
│ └─ No response? → Escalate to Level 2 (motherboard suspected)
└─ [END]

Example 3: First-Call Resolution Guide
Dell Latitude 5000 — WiFi Dropout After Update
- Verify hardware:
ipconfig /all→ Look for Intel WiFi 6 AX201 - Check driver version: Device Manager → Network adapters → Properties → Driver tab
- Required version: ≥27.1.0
- If outdated: Dell Support → Download latest driver
- Update: Run installer → Restart → Verify connection
- If still failing: Roll back BIOS to previous version (guides available in KB#4521)
- Escalation: If issue persists after steps 1-4, replace WiFi module (Part# 0T2GX8, ~15 min labor)
