Old 'My documents' inaccessible after reinstalling XP Home

Hi, I wonder if anyone can possibly help solve a real problem for me?

I had to reinstall Windows XP Home from CD earlier today as my system would
not even allow me to repair an major Win32 error. I can see my previous
screen-name's "My Documents" when I look at the C-drive so I know they are
there ... I can also access other screen-names old "My Documents" items.

However, I realise that the reason I cannot access my documents in the
previous "My Documents" is because I passworded my screen-name.

Does anyone know how I can somehow work around this problem and access all
my files stored under my old screen-name. There must be a way to get around
the system but all attempts are telling me that "access denied"!

Any help most gratefully received. Thanks for reading my heartfelt plea!
