Q: I have a old mac that is pretty much shot..it has a corrupt Operating system on the hard drive. It also has many documents and pictures that i don't want to loose. I cant install a new operating system on the hard drive becasue it is full. I took the hard drive out of the mac and plugged it into my PC. The PC recognizes it, and says new hardware found...but nothing more. How can i view the contents of the Hard drive from my PC???
A: Using an Apple emulator, on your PC, should work. Or, "Once you've tried MacDrive, you'll kick yourself for not installing it sooner. With MacDrive on a Windows PC no longer are Mac disks ignored and unable to be used. MacDrive helps Mac disks act and appear like normal Windows disks. You can drag-and-drop to copy files in either direction, or double-click to open documents directly from Mac disks."
