XP laptop shows up in network map, but not in network computers

From the XP laptop I can access files on Vista desktop, but I can't get to
the laptop from the desktop. Laptop shows up when I map the network, but I
can't access it. It doesn't show up in the list of computers and devices.
Firewall and antivirus are disabled on both machines. What am I doing wrong?
