HDMI is just DVI with sound. 

HDMI to DVI adapters are cheap. 

However, if this is a hardware issue, and I think that highly likely since it 
took a reboot to fix it before it stopped completely, you won't get anything 
out of the external port either. 

You might need to pull the drive and mount it on your desktop to back it up. 
This may be the path of least resistance in any case.
