Shared folder gets access denied on other pc's

Hello Vista forums!
I am sharing a harddrive with my network, everything worked perfectly fine until i formatted the harddrive, updated the pc and rebooted it. Now nobody in my network except me can access it, all the others get access denied. How can this be? Please help me. I will return and answer any questions you might ask me.
