Got the same setup as you. Win7 laptop and xp desktop.
All i can say is, it`s hit and miss if it can see it or not. There doesnt seem to be any valid reason why one day it can see it and then 2 days later it cant.
Easiest way to do it is to install the Network Magic basic, which is free, then let network magic do its thing, then you will be able to see your xp machine.
