You can run an emulator : Wine. This one
can run some Windows progz, but not all.
If you want to really run windows and Linux at the same time, you need VMWare. The little
problem is that it's very expensive.
Bye and good luck

Here is a great emulator: UWin- bell labs
Free beta that works- gives you a bourne shell
Go down the page to UWIN

Just in case those other ones don't work, I have heard of (but never used) this program called ext2. Supposed to work w/ connecting Win to Linux. Friend tells me it works quite well. Don't know where you can get it. Maybe at some Warez Sites? Not that I would know... I don't go to Warez sites... That would be immoral... I don't do immoral things...
good luck
Andrew
