Go to Gnome menu -> System Tools -> Terminal

cd /

sudo mkdir /windows/c

Enter your password

sudo gedit /etc/fstab

Add this line if your Windows partition is the first one on the disk:

/dev/hda1 /windows/c ntfs ro,uid=1000,auto 0 0

Save the file and exit.

Restart Ubuntu.

Note: you can of course create your own mount point by substituting "/windows/c" with some other location. Just be sure it matches fstab.
