If you have already shared the drives (right click on the drive in My Computer or Windows Explorer and select Sharing then give it a name), you'll need to disable the Windows XP firewall or create a trusted zone to allow the computers to share resources with each other.

The cause of the problem might be different than what mentioned in this page. Never the less the solution should work.
