sudo gedit /etc/fstab

Any text editor will do, I personally use vim, but any text editor
works.  The specific syntax will depend on the file system of the
Windows partition (fat32 vs ntfs).

Examples:
/dev/sda1 /path/to/mount vfat      defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 /path/to/mount ntfs-3g   defaults 0 0

Of course you should adjust this to match the specifics of your computer.

Once there is an entry in the fstab, it will be mounted automatically on
boot (unless you add the noauto option).
