    Hi every one,

    The monitor screen of my Dell desktop running Windows XP suddenly becomes black. I want to be able to continue working with my files on the desktop and wonder if there's a way to somehow hook up the hard drive to my SONY VAIO TXN laptop, also running Win XP, to work with just the laptop screen and desktop hard drive.

    I pulled out the end of the cord connecting to desktop monitor and hooked it to the laptop instead. Then Press Fn + F7. Nothing works.

    Please let me know what I'm missing here.

    Thanks!
