I would just use DHCP so each attached computer gets a network address automatically.
At home I also do not use passwords. This sometimes confuses things. Make sure
everyone has the same WORKGROUP name. On the XP you should be configured to use
file and printer sharing. Usually if you want to share a directory you have to specifically
set up XP to share with the other computers. All computers should also have a different
computer name.
