Did you see something like

\begin{BOX}
Unable to mount the volume.

Failed to read $MFTMirr: Input/output error Failed to
mount '/dev/sda1': Input/output error NTFS is either
inconsistent, or have hardware fualts, or you have a
SoftRAID/FakeRAID hardware.  In the first case run
chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot into Windows TWICE. 
The usage of the /f parameter is very important!  If
you have SoftRAID/FakeRAID then first you must
activate it and mount a different device under the
/dev/mapper directory, (e.g,
/dev/mapper/nvidia_eahaabcc1).
Please see the 'dmraid' documentation for the details

OK

\end{BOX}

I see that as well.  Once in a blue moon I boot into
windows and I see all is well, so it might be a
problem with ntfs-g or what it is called.

Regards,

Antonio
