I know that there are people out there that have problem to get the disk server functionality of the Airport Extreme to work with Vista/XP (I am one of them) but are there actually people out there that has can use the functionality without problem in XP/Vista?

I am using a Wester Digital 500 GB enclosure and I've given up! I would like to know if I am a minority or if it is as I suspect... I am not alone...

I have both an external USB HDD and a printer plugged into a USB hub which is plugged into the my AEBS (gigabit). Zero problems with my Al 20" iMac or the WinXP machines I have.
 
I have no problems with AEBS and XP and Vista accessing the HD. Mine is a Seagate, but that shouldn't matter. Have you made sure that the workgroup name is consistent across all of the machines?
