If your going from the mac machine to the windows machine then try using the
terminal. I think from memory its command K, 
 Then use 
SMB at the start of your command
 So it would be something like 

Smb:\\ip-address, or domain name.com.

  If this is on your personal network then use the IP address and if you
have a shared drive or folder on your windows machine, you should either get
it or get a username / password if you have one on  the file / folder share.

 Macs can read the windows folder structure and write to it if it's a fat32
file structure.
If the windows machine uses an ntfs file structure then the mac will read
but not write to it.

A windows machine will have a very very difficult job of reading the  mac
folder structure.
