There’s nothing wrong with your Windows XP. It’s all because of the Ubuntu SMB password.

If you have installed Samba but can’t get the Username/Password access then follow these simple instructions:
 

# Goto the Terminal

# Type sudo smbpasswd username -a (replace the username with your account name.)

# Leave the password blank by pressing the Enter key. So all you need to key-in is just that particular username in Windows XP ‘Connect to’ prompt.
