One thing I haven't figured out yet is why there are so many accesses to My Documents in folder/windows explorer view.

For example:
I am the only computer user of this operating system. My account name is Hawkfire, this account name is the administer one; there is that account, a unused guest account and an unused .net account.

In my explorer I see a 'My Documents', 'Hawkfire's Documents', and then again under Documents and Settings I see a folder named Hawkfire with a sub folder under that named again 'My Documents'.

They sure made this confusing, no doubt. When I go to access videos for example from an explorer/folder window, I don't know which one I should go with.

I'm trying to figure out if there was something I did maybe during windows xp installation to make this happen

They're the same folder.

I realize this, but I can't figure out the purpose of having three accesses to it like that.

I don't understand your use of the word "access". There's only one My Documents folder for your account. There may be multiple shortcuts to it, but there should only be one folder.
