When using windows XP mode in windows 7, can i browse to the documents using windows 7 explorer?

also, do I need to install graphics drivers or virus software if its already on my 7 ?
 
First make sure you install XP mode correctly:
Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7

Yes, you need separate AV and drivers.

****************

About the My Documents Folder:

1. Go to the Settings for your XP Mode vm.
2. Change the network adapter binding from NAT to the physical network adapter of your Windows 7 machine.
3. Create a share for the My Documents folder on the XP vm.
4. On the Windows 7 machine, map a drive to the share on the XP vm.
