Hi,

I have an OSX 10.2.5 and a XP hooked to a SMC router. The pc can ping the mac but the mac can't see the pc. How can I get the mac to see the pc?
 
Is the personal firewall turned off on Windows box? It may be on right now and blocking icmp ping requests.

Also, are you sure you have correct ip address of the pc? does not sound like an OS X/Macintosh issue to me. Sounds more like a network configuration or PC issue.
