No problem, do the following.
1. go to the terminal.
2. log in as root using 'su' command.
3. type your root password.
4. type '/sbin/fdisk -l' to see a list of your hard drive dev.
5. chose the desired one.
6. make an empy dir for the mount point like 'mkdir /home/username
(your login name)/Desktop/win'
7. mount the drive by typing 'mount /dev/hdXX /home/username (your
login name)/Desktop/win'
8. the first X is the location of the drive (a, b, c or d) depend on
the drive location with in the IDE cable. the other is the no.
9. change the mode for this folder to give a permission to your self
'chmod 777 /home/username/Desktop/win'
You will have your drive mounted in the folder win located in your
desktop.

Perhaps you have to specify the File
system in the mount command.

I've just installed Fedora 3 on a
PC with 2 hard disks. I'm dual
booting Windows XP and Fedora using grubb. When I look under the
System
Tools>Hardware Browser, both disks appear. the dos disk shows
fat32.
However, when I try to mount the disk using the "User Mount Tool" under
System Tools>Disk Management, I get the following error message:
"There
are no filesystems which you are allowed to mount or unmount. Contact
your administrator." (Unfortunately, I am the administrator.)
I used to mount dos drives in Red Hat 9 with no problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Tom Capehart
