Cant connect to network drives in vista but can on xp

I am having a problem. Up until today, I have had 7 computers networke
together, sharing multiple drives off of a winxp pro server.

Three of the computers are running windows xp, three are vista, one i
win7.

Last night we had a power outage and when we came in, we had to reboo
the entire network. Now, every computer running windows xp can stil
connect to the network drives \\Parent\sharedfolder. etc. However, th
three running vista and the one running win7 cant connect. When I tr
to connect on them it says Invalid Username or Password. However, I a
using the same username and passwords that are still working on the x
machines.

I have made sure that file sharing is enabled, and restarted all th
machines numerous times, however I am stuck to no avail.

If anyone has any tips or ideas please let me know

Got it fixed. (I promise I spent about 5 hours trying to find a fi
