You must first find out the name of that Hard disk, is it hda0? hda1? or hdb0? set it in the /etc/fstab file as a mount point. You also need to specify the file system type. Read How-Tos on fstab, file system mounting, and of similar content.

If you don't want to put it in fstab you can use 'mount' command to mount win partition whenever you need it.

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


to determine win partition type fdisk -l
