Is the Windows partition FAT/FAT32?  If so, you can mount it under Linux.
You must find out which partition it is on (e.g. /dev/hda1, /dev/hdb1, etc.)
and create a place to mount it.  I usually mount it under /mnt/win.
Wherever you choose to mount it, the directory must exist (e.g. mkdir
/mnt/win), and then you can mount it:

# mount /dev/hdb1 /mnt/win	### Do this as root

Once you are convinced that works, put an entry in /etc/fstab to mount it at
boot time:

/dev/hdb1	/mnt/win	vfat	defaults	0 0

Then you can transfer files ;o)
