Windows explorer forcing me to loging as guest

So I open Windows Explorer and type in \\COMPUTERNAME\c$ or e$ for the two hard drives. It forces me to login as COMPUTERNAME\Guest with the drop down being greyed out. I'd like to login as COMPUTERNAME\Username with Username being the username that I use to log in and is an administrator. Is there a setting a have to set on COMPUTERNAME to get this to work?

I know I'm not giving a lot of detail here but I'm not sure what I need to provide, I pretty much set up XP under all the standard settings so if there is anything I can answer to make it clearer please pose the question 😉
