If you're not on the latest service pack, we strongly recommend getting and installing the latest service pack for each computer on the network. If it doesn't fix the problem directly, it may make solving the problem far easier.
Ideally, all computers on the network should be the same OS and service pack. Using different OSes may make solving network problems a bit more difficult.
Note that Windows 7 "HomeGroup" does not work with older OS versions.

Enable Access Through Firewall
6
Your Firewall may be the cause of the network access problems. While not ideal, you might want to temporally disable the Firewall to see if the problem goes away. If a disabled Firewall does not fix it, re-enable the firewall.
If the Firewall is blocking your network access, you'll need to check with the vendor's Firewall instructions on how to allow local network access.
The Firewall is an important part of the system security and it should not be left disabled!
If you are using the Windows Firewall, you can change its settings by going to the Control Panel. For XP, just select the Firewall. For Windows 7 and Vista, in the Control Panel, select System and Security, then Firewall.
