I had the same problem, go to the XP computer and search Microsoft.com for
the download called "LLTD Responder" and install then reboot. After you
reboot go the Vista computer and create a new network map and you will see
the XP computers on the network.

Good job w/ the LLTD Responder. I was frustrated as hell that my new toy
couldn't play with the other on the network. Thanx for the fix Scarson !!!!

You are welcomed now maybe you can help me. I have file and print sharing
enabled on both computers and I have a printer connected to the Vista
computer and it is shared but I can not connect the it to XP computer which
is wireless. On the XP computer in network places I can see both computers
and on the Vista computer using the network map I see both but I can not
access any shares on the Vista system when I am on the XP system. Please I
need help ASAP.

LLTD worked for getting my XP machines on the map, but I can still not
access them, I have tried to ping them and that doesn't work. Anyone have
any ideas? I have a printer on an XP Home machine which I would like to use.
It seems everytime I upgrade to a new operating system my printers aren't
compatible anymore, last time I lost a HP scanner, this time I am losing a
Lexmark all in one.. Sheesh..
