Is this a local disk or a network disk?  if so post you network configuration, 
and make sure you have windoze setup to share the drive.

if you have windows setup, and the bcast address setup, you should be able to 
use the kde lan browser to see the drive.

post the output of 
fdisk -l /dev/sda
fdisk -l /dev/sdb

ex. 
pts/4 root ~ # fdisk -l /dev/sda

Disk /dev/sda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 4462 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
