How to share C drive on network

Hi i own a dell dimension 2400, 4600, running XP service pack 3, an inspiron 1150 running XP professional and 2 computers running windows 7. An inspiron 1545 and a gateway netbook. What I would like to ultimately do is network these computers so i can access edit and view files on all of my computers at my leisure. on the windows 7 PC's i have had alittle more luck i can move files between these two computers but not retitle them once they're moved. in short i would like to be able to access all of these pc's files videos pics ect. from where ever i am in my house move and edit them from any computer. any help would be greatly appreciated. If anyone knows what to do step by step please help! thank you.

I am able to share my c drive from my netbook running Win7, but my Inspiron 1545 will display this message when I try to share it.

Error message:
"an error has occurred while applying this security information
C:\hiberfil.sys"
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process"

I've tried copying the same security settings as my netbook, but still no luck. Please help!!
