Network problems with XP and Vista

All of my computers were working fine with my network, 3 with XP, 1 with Vista, 1 Network HD and 1 network printer. Router is a D-Link DIR-655. I haven't changed anything but none of my XP computers can see the network and the Vista can, I get an error that the network is not accessible. I can still connect to the internet with all of the computers...Did Vista hijack my network? How do I fix this?

Thank you for any help you can give me.

I am having the same problem with two desktops and a laptop. The Vista PC can see and access files on the two XP PCs, but the XP PCs cannot see shared files on the Vista PC. All PCs have Internet access via a wireless router. The Vista PC is new and previously all three XP machines networked without a hitch. Have verified that all PCs have same work group name. XP PCs also crash explorer when attempting to access Vista PC via My Network Places. Need help, too.

Thanks,
