You might be asked for a password for your Windows XP (or Windows 7) for the two to connect with each other. So, make sure you know your password for both. Also have a look on/in your router settings and see if both computers are seen on it, you might have some settings to change in your router for this to take place.

Also download this (for your XP machine) to make sure:
