4 things to check:



1. are they speaking the same protocol and is it configured correctly? By default tcp/ip using DHCP will handle all of this. from cmd prompt type ipconfig /all and check so see if they are configured on the same network number



2. is file and print sharing turned enabled? click on network places, do a properties of the adapter you are connecting to and verify that microsoft file and print sharing is installed and checked.



3. Is your firewall blocking file and print sharing? even if you never purchased a software firewall XP service pack 2 includes one in the same area as above click advanced, if it's enabled click settings then exceptions and check the windows file and print sharing box.



4. your browser service is acting up. check your eventvwr for computer browser errors. there are registry changes that can be made to make one the master browser, but If you make registry changes incorrectly you can open a can of worms.
