One of the common errors in setting up a new system on a network is
the failure to share devices on the new system, such as your WinXP
PC.  Go back and be sure you have at least set your hard drive to share
on the WinXP machine and that you have file sharing engaged in the properties
area of your Network Neighborhood.  Otherwise, the network sees the PC
and has no other place to connect, as you have reported.
