Cannot access Windows XP SP2 computers or connect to shared printer

Hi Guys,

I have 3 windows xp sp2 networked computers with a Windows 2003 SBS and a DLink router all connected.
They all have firewalls disabled.
One of the windows xp sp2 computers has a HP 2410 all in one USB printer attached and shared to the network.

The problem is that from my computer, I see the other computers but I can't access them and I cannot connect to the shared printer.
When I do "browse for printer" I can see the computer which is sharing but not the printer itself. When I do "Find in directory" the printer appears but when I try to connect it asks me for username/password and after awhile gives me a permission error.

Can anyone help me please?
Thanks.

it's an annoyance of WinXP pro networking, make sure you had create a password login for your account, then re-run "Setup a home or small office
network" in My Network Places. Restart your computer when done.
