ok heres a solution I found find the xp computer ip address
if your computer is running nortons security disable the firewall windows
firewall is ok to be on
open a cli window and ping the ip #
the xp computer should now appear on network
map a drive on the xp computer on the vista computer
after this the xp computer will be on network shortly after bootup
