Is there any software for windows and linux that allows me to view and use the HDD with the other OS on it. For example, i cant see my windows drive in linux and my linux drive in windows. any help?
 
usually you can see your windows drive in Linux. Ther eis decent NTFS read support. Write support is shakey (thanks MS). If you are using EXT3, there is a windows driver for EXT3 (read support only, last I used it a year ago)

i can see it but i cant access it. and i can only see my linux drive in disk management in windows.
 
in linux, you need to mount it...mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows, changing to match your setup. you may need to modprobe ntfs first (and hope you have it built in)
 
Did you disable your firewall in linux?
I know in Suse I need to disable my firewall to get access to my windoze box.
