you should post separate questions so they can be tackled separately.

1. Logs are your friend. Turn up the logging on samba (log level in
smb.conf) You might actually want to share the configuration information
too (smb.conf). Lastly, WinXP... if you open an explorer window and type
\\YOUR_SAMBA_SERVER does it connect? Does it allow you to authenticate?

2. I am under the assumption that if you install os-prober and then run
grub2-mkconfig (see below) that it should just work.

yum install os-prober
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

Where does it fail? What is your configuration in /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
(before/after these steps?)
