Re-use

Some time ago a charitable organisation asked me to help to see if I could resolve this computer’s problems. Ultimately it was a problem with the hard disk and since another person decided to donate a better computer to them I just helped them to set up that computer and they left the one that was not working with me. It was left lying around until recently when I figured that it is small enough to bring it anywhere with me and I might be able to use it with this group of children I am helping with their writing skills. So I installed a new system on an old SSD and voila, it worked!

    It seems that you don’t like commas but they do help to organise what you are saying when used well: Some time ago (comma) a charitable organisation asked me to help (delete) resolve this computer’s problems. Ultimately it was a (“It turned out that there was a” would sound less dramatic, I think) problem with the hard disk and since another person decided to donate a better computer to them (comma) I just helped them to set up that computer and they left the one that was not working with me. It was left lying around until recently when I figured that it is small enough to bring (delete) anywhere with me and (that) I might be able to use it with this group of children I am helping with their writing skills. So I installed a new system on an old SSD and voila, it worked!
