Hi
Make sure that the Software Firewall on each computer allows free local
traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall On, Vista/XP Native Firewall should
be Off, and the active Firewall has to adjusted to your Network IP numbers
on what is some time called the Trusted Zone (consult your 3rd Party
Firewall instructions.
General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq#trusted
Vista File and Printer Sharing-

Windows XP File Sharing -

Windows Native Firewall setting for Sharing XP -

Windows XP patch for Sharing with Vista (Not need for XP-SP3) -

When you done configuring hard reboot the whole Network, Computers, and
Router.
