Is Client for Microsoft Networks installed on the one that doesn't show up? Is File and Printer Sharing installed on the one that doesn't show up?

make sure that both are configured for workgroup and not for domain (if it is set to domain, better not to change it unless you're sure that you can login with the workgroup).

workgroup should be the same, of course...with same computer name.
