What is involved in refurbishing donated PCs to Digital Pipeline standards?
A. The refurbishment process is carried out by DP Refurbishers who are expected to erase previous owner’s data/programs from hard drives using data eradication software tools, perform electrical safety and functionality tests and legally reinstall an operating system on refurbished PCs. The operating system that was originally on the PC will then be reinstalled. The beneficiary is free to install the operating system of their choice upon receipt of the PC. DP Refurbishers will responsibly recycle any PCs that fail their tests.
