How can i retreive data from an ibook with a dead LogicBoard?

Question

The logic board on my g3 ibook went dead, I can hear the computer start up, but the display is not working. Is there a way to retrieve the data witout paying for a new logic board? Also I still have one working ibook, is there an easy way to combine the two, like using the hard drive of the defective ibook with the working computer screen display?

Answer 1

No, remove the hard drive from the defective notebook and install it in an external hard drive enclosure (3.5" or 2.5" sizes to match your drive) and then you can copy your data to the good iBook.
