I went through pretty much the same process short of buying any new hardware. I'm truly grateful of Web sites and postings like these. My problem was not exactly like this but similar. I have a laptop w/ XP Home SP1. For the life of me it couldn't see the 98 SE desktop I also have. All it took was to "disable" the "Norton Internet Protection / Firewall". Bamo! Thanks & Good luck!
