Default Networking with XP Desktop

I have a desktop with Windows XP SP2. I have just purchased a notewbook with
Windows Vista. I have a Netgear Wireless router attached to the desktop, to
allow internet access from the notebook.

I'm trying to set up my home network so the notebook can acces the hard
drive and the printer attached to the desktop. I've shared the C drive and
printer on the destop. Both the desktop and the notebook have the same
workgroup name, but I still can't find the destop from the notebook.

I've heard this may be a firewall issue. Any suggestions?
Thanks
