I have succesfully installed XP Pro, but even though my C seems 85GB Full, but cant see the file I had before?

Question

I had XP H.Edition on my PC, but yesterday installed XP Pro,
During the install, I had tried to Back Up.
And I think I did successfuly cos my C seems(?)
full of my old Documents (progs etc),

I can see my older programs in the PC I was using with XP HE, but cant see the Desktop files (.DOCs, .PPTs, PICs, Musics and Movies)

Where they can be? Under which file?
Do you know the name of the FILEs, which I made a BACK-UP of the older XP H.edition? Please HELP!!!


And (where) can I find free Office2007 to download from Microsoft?
