As best I am aware, this isn't a WINE problem, but more a kernel problem.  
Your kernel must be compiled with NTFS support to read your windows drive, 
and NTFS-write support to write to it.  However, NTFS-write support is 
almost certainly not enabled in any default kernel, as it is extremely 
unstable.  

Personally, I agree with Richard, install your windows apps wherever 
possible on your ext2 filesystem, as this should work fine.
