I believe I may have found the answer. I was trying to just use the desktop icon, but when I tried to use the command line I was suggested to pick a couple of options first, one of which was ntfsfix:
Code:
root@Mephistolist:/home/Israel# ntfsfix /media/hda1
Mounting volume... Error opening partition device: Is a directory
Failed to startup volume: Is a directory

Volume is corrupt. You should run chkdsk.
I've had a problem with this and even tried running chkdsk /F from the Recovery cd to fix all that, but nothing seems to help? I guess it's just a hardware issue?
