Default Network problem

I installed an OEM winxp on my wife's computer (new HD) and could communicate
with my computer (running W2K) across the hall no problem. I then installed
WinXP upgrade now her computer asks for a password to access my computer. We
have no passwords? I have disabled Virus and all security programs but
nothing works.
Any suggestions?

It is better to have a password. if you don't, make sure the guest account is enabled.
