Fried graphics card. What do I do?

[Fuga]

Hi,

I'm in a a lot of trouble. My graphics card has stopped functioning, leaving me with a perfectly good computer that I cannot use.

In order to retrieve the information from the harddisk, I got a cable between this computer and another one.

This is my plan:

When the "blind" computer is started, I will enter the cmd. From there I would like to be able to "share" one of my folders on the small network (ie the two computers). Is there a DOS command for this?

second question:

If I have VNC server installed, will I be able to see the desktop from another computer allthough I can't see it on the blind computer? Does that information go through the graphics card before it is sent over the internet, or after it has arrived in the VNC viewer computer?

Fuga.

there is dos commands for that kind of thing, but i am not sure if it will do exactly what you want.

net /?
The syntax of this command is:


NET [ ACCOUNTS | COMPUTER | CONFIG | CONTINUE | FILE | GROUP | HELP |
HELPMSG | LOCALGROUP | NAME | PAUSE | PRINT | SEND | SESSION |
SHARE | START | STATISTICS | STOP | TIME | USE | USER | VIEW ]

So i would imagin you would need "net use" or "net start" or maybe "net view" as that would show you shares.

Hope this helps.
