Option 1: There should be a monitor port on the back of the laptop. It's a blue plug. Take a monitor from a desktop computer and plug it into the blue port on the laptop. Then turn your laptop on. You will be able to see your laptop screen on the desktop monitor. Then save your files to a CD or flash drive. Option 2: If you don't have a blue monitor port on the laptop you will need to pull the hard drive out of the laptop and buy a hard drive 2.5" (Either SATA or IDE) to USB adapter then you can plug the hard drive into another computer and read the files, copy them, etc.. This option should be carried out by a technically savy person or computer tech.
