inMy landlord said to just knock on the neighbor's door about the bass, and I thought that was the dumbest advice ever until I tried it
Knock during the day, bring the landlord's name up, and ask if they can hear it from your side too.

inSpent 2 hours on a customer's slow laptop with my usual toolkit, fixed it in 10 with a Live USB
Checking drive health first is solid, but for me the first move is usually yanking the drive and imaging it before I even poke around. Had a guy's PC last month that ran fine for ten minutes then froze hard, turned out the drive was on its way out. If I'd started cleaning temp files like normal I would've been writing on a dying disk the whole time. Cleaners and tweaks can wait, the hardware tells you a lot before you touch the software. Your mileage may vary based on what you're seeing, but slow boot plus old HDD is a red flag I don't ignore anymore.

Wait, 6mm left at 78k? That's insane for originals.
