Do you mean "can't see" under Network in Explorer or something else?
In Start, Run, key \\othercomputername and press Enter. What happens?
If you haven't already, try enabling NetBIOS over TCP/IP (network connection
Properties, Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4), Properties, Advanced...,
WINS).
Vista can interoperate with XP and 2003 computers that do not have the LLTD
Responder installed. Adding the LLTD Responder
(

will allow XP computers to appear in the "Network Map", but is not required
for "normal" interoperability.
