Network issue

Hi guys i`m new around here. i have a problem with my network. I`m running a network with 6 computers and they are running the following o/s. The first 5 p.c. they are using windows xp s/p 2 and the other one is running windows 7 7100 version all those pc have additional hard drive which are shared. They are all connected to an 8 switch port and on the same workgroup. i added another p.c. running windows vista ultimate also with an extra hard drive also shared. On all p.c running xp and windows 7 I can see them on my network places even the vista machine. now the problem is when i check on my vista machine network places i cant see the other computers or share drive. all those p.c are within the same range of the ip address [10.0.0.1 - 10.0.0.8]

One cause of sharing failure is (i know it doesnt make sense) is the clock is off on the pc.
