    Your worst out come will be to scrap these towers. Depending on what you paid for them you will still make a profit. In the end you will have learned a lot and hopefully had some fun self educating.

    Do the research I suggested in your other thread. Check the towers and see if they sell whole on ebay, check "sold" box. Learn about shipping costs etc.

    Make or purchase a copy of the operation system Ubuntu(its free online google it) and put it on a thumb drive. Don't know how search youtube videos for Ubuntu.

    Test out your towers and see if they work, using the Ubuntu operating system on a thumb drive eliminates the need for a hard drive with windows on it.

    If the towers don't have enough value then perhaps individual parts can be sold for a profit.



    Keep reading the old and new threads for the best education you can imagine for free.

    All this can be done with out assistance from anyone else. I may be stronger than you but maybe not. I started scraping as a way to rehab myself while on dialysis and later after a kidney transplant. My maximum weight I am supposed to lift is 20 pounds. 73, Mike
