Sharing HDD to Specific PC's on a Network in Vistax64

I had 4 pc's on my network, two of which are mine, and I want to be able to share between my two pcs but not to the other two pcs on the network. I can't figure out how to do this with windows vista 64-bit without disabling sharing completely or enabling it completely.

I basically can only select "Everyone" and then give them full access, read, and / or write. I tried manually typing in a computer's name on the network with no luck. Please, help me out with this. I would be most grateful. I've tried google, but haven't found the answer despite reading through some articles obviously written for the absolute computer novice.
 
The easiest way to do it is to set up the two computers you want to access the private files to use the same username and password. If this is feasible in your situation?
 
As you found, ever since Windows 2000, "Everyone" doesn't mean "Anyone". By default, it only applies to Users with accounts on the machine.
