Mount Windows partition on boot

Could someone tell how to mount my Win partion on boot. I keep my music there so I can listen when I am forced to do some tasks on Windows. I treid to search the forum, but no luck. Sorry for the lazy question as I want to learn more about linux, but my studies do not allow it now.

thanks,
Guy

edit fstab

you need to edit fstab. Root can edit fstab, not a user.
Alt-F2, put this command into the box, give the root password when asked
kdesu kedit /etc/fstab

you need a line like this one
/dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 vfat auto,users,exec,umask=000 0 0
