Hi there,
I'm a full newbie about cryptocoins.. And I'm willing to start to mine gently with an old PC (this computer is already on 24/7 as I'm using it as a server).
I'm looking for new coins to mine but I don't know how to find which one I should start with. Bitcoin and other famous ones are too difficult to hope earning something. If I'm not wrong, I should mine a recent currency, but how to choose ??
Thanks a lot.

do understand if you want to learn don't involve a pc that you need as you could kill it and f yourself.
A lot of people have older gear used. on the cheap
you could get a test rig and learn fairly cheaply.
with out killing your server.
you could mine zec fairly easy with cards that have 3gb ram or 2gb ram. a used rig would allow you to learn how to mine.
but back to your server what is the motherboard ? what gpu does it have?
maybe you could grab a cheap card and put it in the server
