How can I pull up files from my old Windows XP documents folder and such?
Can someone write down the path to finding them?
How to access Windows directories on my hd?
run pmount or mut
mount hda1 (if your XP is on 1st partition of your disk)/can be sda1 if you have a SATA hard disk.
open hda1 (or hda2 or sda1 or sda2)
look for a folder called documents and settings or something like that
inside that look for a folder with the name you use to logon into XP
inside that folder look for a folder called Desktop, local settings or something like that. Inside should be a My Documents folder with your documents.
I'm not on a windows machine to search for the right path. sorry
EDIT: the right path sould be something like this /mnt/hda1/Documents and Settings/windows user name here/My Documents
