On your PC name your share the same name as your PS3 machine name. 

1) Launch Windows Media Player 11
2) Right Click the top bar and select Tools --> Options -> Select Library tab --> Configure Sharing -> Highlight Unknown Device and select Settings -> Enter Name of your PS3 in the box under "Share Media As" and save changes.

It should show up and allow access from your PS3.

Awesome man, thanks! It worked like a charm.

You seem to be the only one on here who gave direct and proper solution.
