You should only need to share the specific folders you require, not the whole C drive.

I assume the PC and laptop both have the same workgroup name?

Is this a fully wired network, or is it wireless. Sometime wired to wireless shares can cause problems if the router isn't operating in the right mode.

Do you have any firewalls running?
