First, make a "mount point". As a suggestion, try:
mkdir /mnt/windisk
Then, mount the drive under that directory:
mount -t vfat /dev/hdb1 /mnt/windisk
You can then cd into /mnt/windisk and otherwise access the files
therein.
If you would like to delete or write to your windows partition, you'll
want to add "-rw" to your mount command (for read/write).
As usual, you can get more information via
"man man mount"
