Hi Adam,
You are trying to mount a Network File System file system with this command.
you should try
mount -t vfat /dev/hda /mnt/windows (if you are using fat), or ntfs (I think,
check the man page) if it is ntfs. Note that last time I looked, the ntfs
stuff was experimental (read, scramble your files) and read-only
