Hi there I have the above g4 ibook and before moving house this year did something I now regret I tried moving all my documents over to a new external hard drive. I copied them over and deleted all the documents and emptied the trash thinking they had moved over successfully but they hadn't only the alias had moved over and when I cam to retireve them from the hard drive it said they could not find the original... Someone has since given me some recovery discs to use but there is a hitch as I have no screen it will hook up to an external monitor but I though i needed not just the screen but another computer to sort this mess out can someone help and give me any idea of how I can even just retrieve the word documents from my mac? I will need it in simple layman terms as I am no computer buff. Many thanks ruth
