This is a regular question around here, try doing a search for edit fstab to add windows; Much less waiting to do the search then wait for a response.

This is my fstab, take a look:

PHP Code:
  GNU nano 1.3.11                    File: /etc/fstab

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
/dev/hda2       /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
/dev/hda6       /home           ext3    defaults        0       2
/dev/hda5       none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
/dev/hdd        /media/cdrom1   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
/dev/hdb1       /mnt/storage    vfat    noauto,users,exec,umask=000     0       0
/dev/hda1       /windows        ntfs    noauto,users,exec,ro,umask=000  0       0
/dev/sda1       /mnt/sda1       vfat    noauto,users,exec,umask=000     0       0
/dev/sda2       /mnt/sda2       vfat    noauto,users,exec,umask=000     0       0 
Hope this helps,
Eric and da Fur.

The answers to both how to let your Linux system see the NTFS partition, and how to allow it to play mp3 files is here:
