Media Sharing question

I currently have 3 computers and a PS3 on my wireless network. I just moved into my new house and i'm in the process of making my basement a game room. I put the 3rd computer down there with hopes of sharing music off my main PC to it. My main PC is running Vista Home Premium, i'm using media sharing though WMP 11 to the PS3 which works without any problems. The 3rd PC in my basement is running WinXP Pro SP2 with WMP 11 and I can't get my main PC's MP3 files to show up on it. I can get the files from that computer to show up on my main PC and PS3 though. Does the 3rd PC need Vista in order to have files show up or am I just missing a step someplace? Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
 
Under the list of "share my media to" the 3rd PC isn't showing up so I checked the option "allow new devices and computer to connect automatically" under the settings tab but it still isn't showing up.
 
I disabled the firewall on the 3rd PC and still can't get share media to it. I think that you must beable to share with XP but only receive with Vista.
