Hi.I have a slave disk with windows xp installed.when i try to access in c:\documents and settings\userx tells me that is not acessible.How to enter in that directory to extract files?
 
Try this:

1. Boot into safe mode.
2. Log in as Admin
3. Add Admin in the Security Tab of the orginal profile (userx)
4. Take ownership of the orginal profile (userx)
 
But putting the disk as master and running the windows in himself?
 
No, leave your PC the way it is...just use the idea behind what I am saying...you probably have an ownership issue here, so boot into safe mode as the admin and then take ownership of the userx under Docs and Settings...

Make sense?

Ok i will try to run the windows on master disk at safe mode as the admin and take ownership of the slave disk.
