What I used as a permanent solution was to edit my /etc/fstab file. I added a line in the end which automatically mounts my fat partition on booting in linux.
============================================
/dev/hda(your partition number) /mnt/win msdos defaults 0 0
============================================

Then you create a directory in /mnt with the name of win.

Finally at the shell prompt do a init 1 and then init 5.

Hurray!!

Your windows partition is mounted!!!!!
