Yes, I just did.

And, it works fine.

Now, why isn't it putting this in the networking window....

Now, as I mentioned previously, check your NetBIOS setting. Set it to
Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP on all machines.

I did this; and it does not work still...

Not an easy fix... Am I the only one having this issue? It's this computer,
I can tell you that. It works on another Vista PC though... So, it's
something with Vista that I don't know what's up. Hey, at least I have my XPS
in My Computer now. I appreciate that. But, I go mobile a lot; and connect to
other PC's/Printers. It doesn't detect printers either. Well, very few of
them. I don't know what is up. Here's my friend next to me detecting over 200
printers, and here I am up with 6... There's something wrong with Vista.......

Thanks for all your help by the way ;). Were solving it slowly.. Worst case,
I will have to reinstall. :( Which, would take ages to get it the way I have
it now...

You're welcome.
It's clear at this point that the problem is in network discovery and
probably related NetBIOS communication since you can access shares by IP.
It might be interesting to see if it's the same (in the printers example you
mentioned) with a wired connection. I have no other ideas at the moment.
