Greetings Saurabh,

Is that the complete and exact error message? Be precise here!

If looking at the error message imparts no wisdom, try "browstat status",
"ipconfig /all", "net config server", and "net config workstation", from each
computer, and diagnose the problem. Read this article, and linked articles, and
follow instructions precisely (download browstat!):

Since this is XP Pro, is Simple File Sharing Enabled or Disabled?

Is NetBT explicitly Enabled?

And look at restrictanonymous.
