everything was workign fine... but now i can not access the xp32 systems in the vista64 network neighbourhood.

If i enter the IP of the networked computer everything works fine?

How do i enable the network scanning finding thing again?
Do you mean you can't access Vista from XP because "network neighbourhood." doesn't exist in vista.

If this is the case your problem is almost definitely your workgroup,
Please refer to my other post on changing your workgroup.

Also the accessing the shares from "View workgroup computers", first and they should appear in network neighbourhood.

If neither of these work try:
1.Click Start, click Control Panel, click Appearance and Themes, and click Folder Options to open the Folder Options dialog box.
2.Click the View tab.
3.In the Advanced Settings list, click the Automatically Search for Network Folders and Printers check box.
4.Click OK.

Just to let you know I have several 32/64 bit PC's on my network and that shouldn't have any impact on your connectivity.
