Sorry if this has been suggested - I only briefly skimmed the entire post.
I had the exact same issue with my new Win7 computer not being able to see my XP computerss in my networked WorkGroup. What finally solved it for me was to change the workgroup name on the Win 7 computer. Restart. Then changed it back to my existing WorkGroup name - and bing - all of a sudden it could see the XP machines in my WorkGroup.
Hope you find your fix.
