Update the windows XP service pack 3. If the problem persist then try to disable the antivirus/firewall settings.

Hi, You cannot access shared folders or files. You cannot locate other computers in the workgroup. You receive the following error message when you double-click the workgroup in My Network Places: Workgroup Name is not accessible. You may not have permission to use this network resource. This behavior may occur if all the following conditions are true: NetBIOS over TCP/IP is not turned on (enabled) on one or more computers in the workgroup. The Computer Browser service is not started or is turned off on one or more computers in the workgroup. This behavior may also occur if File and Print Sharing for Microsoft Networks is not installed or is blocked by Windows Firewall.
