Your drive probably does not have a partition table.

You may be able to mount it with:

sudo su
modprobe usb-storage
mkdir /mnt/sda
mount -t vfat /dev/sda /mnt/sda

assuming that the drive has no partition table and is otherwise formatted as FAT32

The files would then be found at /mnt/sda directory.

If this doesn't work, try wiping the drive in MSWindows and create a new FAT32 volume and format it. Then try booting into Linux and see if it is found.

Good Luck.
