/mnt/windows sounds suspiciously like a network mount, in particular,
one from a windows based server.  UNIX permissions may not, and in
fact probably do not, apply.  You need to look at the permissions on
the server side, in their native form, and figure out what you have to
open up to allow writing from the network.
