Try connecting to one of the machines by IP address. Do this:

Places>Connect to Server>   When the dialog box pops up change the 
service type to Windows Share and on the line below that where it says 
server , enter the IP address of the XP box. Then hit connect. When 
prompted for login credentials, you must use a user name and password 
that have an account on the local machine you are connecting to.
