NEED HELP:  Using Mac Monitor in PC mode

I have a PowerMac at home, and
I also have a PC as well.

My PC monitor have recently died,
and I need a new PC monitor.
In the mean time, I want to connect my
PowerMac monitor to my PC.

I notice the Mac's monitor connector
is different compared to PC's 15-pin
SVGA connector.

How can I plug in the Powermac's
monitor to my PC ??
What kind of adaptor do I need ??
Will I need to install some sort of
new drivers so the Mac Monitor 
can work with my PC ??

Please send responses via personal email.

Thanks.
