here is my problem, I installed a driver and rebooted the compueter, however,
after the reboot it kept giving me the blue screen of death (safe mode, last
good know... all of them, blue screen) so I decided to install a parallel
version of windows onto the same partition so I Could acces my files and save
them before formating an cleaning it. that all went well , I can finally
acces my computer again, however.. all the files located in the my documents
folder under the old windows version I still cannot acces from the new one.
reason for that is that when I was using the original account (1) I made it
private, resulting in the fact of me not being able to access it through
documents and settings under my new account(2) on the parallel and working
version of windows. I also have no clue where to find the driver I installed
so I can rip it off. so here the crutial question is there a way I can hack
into my old account using my new account so I can acces my files and back
them up before erasing it all. if anybody even has the slightest idea, it
would be greatly appreciated

Follow this process to take the old profile and save it to your new one:

Corrupt Profile:

Then you'll have the same stuff that you had before (well, other than
applications or the likes that will need to be re-installed) and if that's a
no-go then use the link to find directions to take ownership.
