If you can see it but not access, it could be the permission issue. Make
sure you have assigned permission in the Security tab. Or this search results may help.

i may be misunderstanding your response, but are you saying i should change
permissions on the vista machine in order to connect to the xp machine? the xp machine is running xp home, so it is my understanding from reading this forum and the link you provided that there is no security tab there.
