This enables Windows XP to position itself on the network map feature of
Windows Vista, it isn't needed to actually network the machines.

Hello,

On the computer running Windows XP, check the workgroup name and then
compare it to the workgroup name on the computers running Windows Vista. If
the workgroup names don't match, change the names so that all of the
computers on the network have the same workgroup name.

You can find more information about this and other troubleshooting tips for
computers not showing up on your home network in this article:
"Troubleshoot problems finding computers on a home network"
