Vista cant open XP shared folders

I have a small problem and I hope someone can advise me how to fix it.

I have a 3 machine home network 2 XP and 1 vista. The xp machines are wired to the router the vista laptop is wireless.

Both XP rigs can connect to the vista laptop but every time i try to browse a shared folder from the vista unit it just throws up an access is denied error.

I am jumping through hoops here guys tryin to sort this out, I know it does not really matter but I am like a dog with a bone and just can't let it go.

Thanks in advance

Nixey
