questions about setting up a network

my roommates and i have set up a network to share files.

the problem is that i've got two hard internal hard drives. a C drive and an F drive.

C is where my operating system and other random bs is located. hd is 40g

F is where all my nonsense is, videos, music, movies. 300g

when i set up the network the shared files automatically direct to the shared docs on the c drive.

is there any way to set it up to be shared from my F drive?

drive C is full and i can't transfer files from F so my buddies can use them

What OS are you running?
You should be able to share anything on any drive.
Be sure that the folder in question is shared and then browse the "network" instead of "Shared Documents". You should be able to map a drive or create a shortcut to the share. I'm sure there is a way to change the default location.

If you want the entire drive contents to be shared. If not then on a specific folder right click, go to properties then the Sharing tab or whatever. The rest is pretty self explanetory.
