What is the boot sequence of these computers?
I know that sometimes this affects which one can see which one.
My suggestion is Vista first than XP. If that fails reverse.

I am running a Vista computer ("#1") hardwired to a Linksys wrt54G
router, and an XP computer ("#2") via Linksys wireless. All software
updated, all firewalls and antiviruses disabled. All in the same
workgroup, all permissions to share the C: drives. All can get on the internet.
Computer #2 can access #1's public files but no others. And Computer
# 1 cannot even see computer #2 - "Access denied" error #
0x80070005. As a check, both can easily access and write files on a
third computer, a laptop running Vista, so I know the router and
network are OK.
I just spent an hour and a half with the Dell "advanced support" who
tried fiddling with every setting he knows how; he could only
suggest reinstalling everything and see if that works (Happily,
there's no charge when the problem isn't solved).
An suggestion where to start? I especially want to be able to access
#2 from #1 to set up automated backups.
