I don't exactly do that for a living, but I do go around fixing people's stuff.
Seeing as most people are rather computer illiterate, I find it's difficult to get an idea of the problem from the average home user. So generally I take some spare RAM, of varying speeds and slot types, mebbe one hdd pre-loaded with an os, spare cpu, a flashdrive (or my external hdd) loaded with drivers, patches, virus scanner stuffs, codecs, etc.
Usually you can get enough of an idea, however, to know whether you should bring a graphics card with you.
Like peter said tho, try and gather as much info as you can first before going to the place totry and fix it.
Hey, one question, unless the chipsets are the same, would there be any point in having a preloaded hard drive with an OS!?
