Default Networking Vista and XP

I have two computers that I need to network. One is on Windows XP SP 2 , the other is new, on Windowss Vista. They are connected to a broadband router via a home network. I previously had the older computer, on XP networked to a laptop (also running XP) and it was working fine. The laptop no longer exists. I have gone through all the normal networking steps, I think, but I am still new to Vista so I may have missed something. I was able to locate files on the XP computer with the Vista computer but only by going to run and typing \\DESKTOP. The XP doesn't show on the network screen of Visata or vice versa. What I really need is to be able to see one and the other from windows explorer. Please Help! Thanks!
