Hey sorry I meant to reply to this earlier and forgot to. House calls are actually extremely rare in dumping and I haven't gotten any interest here for one. With a PC based game we would need basically 3 things: hard drive dump, bios dump(s) and hardware information. So you could either pull the whole computer and ship and loan that out or follow instructions on doing it yourself. As for house calls in dumping I'd say less than .1% of the dumps in mame are from them. With a computer from recent years it's feasible to say the motherboard bios could be gotten from an external source/download/program and all you would need to do is buy a cheap adapter to read out the hard drive to another PC and otherwise would probably only need to take a bunch of pics of the inside of the computer and maybe an alt boot so we'd know the CPU, RAM, motherboard, videocard and whatnot. Again, house calls are extremely rare so some basic work from yourself or else pulling the computer and shipping it out.
