Hi. First things first, hopefully your Windows drive/partition is FAT32, as NTFS write 
support may not be supported in your kernel. If your partition is NTFS, research your 
distro/kernel to see if you can write to NTFS, or optionally load NTFS 
support/recompile kernel.

Anyway, if it's FAT32:

Open a terminal, type:

su

Enter your root password.
              
Now, create a mount point to hold the data of your Windows partition, by typing for 
example:

mkdir /mnt/win
              
To access the partition, as root in a terminal, type the following:

mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/win

Easy, eh? Your partition will hopefully then be in:

/mnt/win

or wherever you specified.

now, for it to be mounted for you upon boot, make an entry in:

/etc/fstab

that resembles:

/dev/hda1 /mnt/win vfat noauto, owner, users 0 0

All that should work, remember these instructions are for FAT32. :)
