Are you part of the same workgroup? Are you sharing anything?

You have to enable File and print sharing. Then enable sharing for each drive. Right click on each drive and select sharing.

You need to have at least one common protocol. TCP/IP is the most common. Also need a Client (Client for Microsoft Networks), and a service (File and print sharing) You obviously have the adapter.
