Networking

Hi, i'm having problems using file and printer sharing over a wireless
netwok. I have 1 desktop and 1 laptop both running XP home edition and are
connected to the internet via a wireless modem/router. Now, I have enabled
file and printer sharing on both computers and am able to access the files
that are stored on my laptop, on my desktop, but not the other way round. In
My Network Places on the laptop, an icon representing my desktop is visible,
but when I try to access it, an error message appears. Any ideas? Any help
will be greatly appreciated.

Not a clue without the error message.
