Hi Guys

I have a home network with 4 computers connected to my broadband router and all share files and folders and the internet.
2 computers have windows vista ultimate and 2 computers have windows xp professional. All computers seem to be set up correctly and each computer can access 2 of the 4 computers with no problems through the my workgroup computers icon whether it is windows vista ultimate or windows xp professional but when trying to access the other 2 computers windows keeps asking me to enter a password and username in before it will let me access the shared files and folders in that computer. The 2 computers that are asking me to type in a username and password require none of this when actually using the computer.

Any help would be greatly appreciated in fixing this annoying problem i cant seem to fix

thanks in advance
