Are any of them listed in your /etc/fstab? What does your /etc/fstab say?

On the two CDrom lines, change the noauto to auto. As for you fat partitions, it looks like they'll need to be added manually.
As root, run "mkdir /mnt/c"
To your fstab, add a line that refers to the correct partition, and link it to the above directory. I would assume that your C drive would be /dev/hdb0.
You'll have to repeat that for every partition from hdb0 through hdb4.
If your file system is fat, use vfat as your type, if its NTFS, you have to add the libntfs5, and label them as ntfs.
