All works fine except that the main HD where I had all my files are now inaccessible. Here is the error message I get: Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 13: ntfs_attr_pread_i: ntfs_pread failed: Input/output error Failed to read NTFS $Bitmap: Input/output error NTFS is either inconsistent, or there is a hardware fault, or it's 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 the device is a SoftRAID/FakeRAID then first activate it and mount a different device under the /dev/mapper/ directory, (e.g. /dev/mapper/nvidia_eahaabcc1). Please see the 'dmraid' documentation for more details Is it necessarily a hardware problem? If not, is there a way to repair the HD from Ubuntu? windows ntfs share|improve this question edited May 15 at 19:06 muru 69.1k12125176 asked Oct 31 '11 at 15:13 Calixte 68461528 add a comment| 5 Answers 5 active oldest votes up vote 17 down vote accepted chkdsk /R is a pretty important command when things get hairy with NTFS. Unfortunately I don't know of a Linux tool that comes close to covering everything it does. In short, to run it, you're going to need some sort of Windows recovery disk. If you don't have one to hand, there's an ISO offered up in a thread on another set of support forums (see the first answer). There are tools like ntfsfix (part of the ntfsprogs package) that can do surface checks on NTFS disks but they don't tend to be able to fix the drives. share|improve this answer answered Oct 31 '11 at 15:24 Oli♦ 172k56434646 3 You could install VirtualBox and an XP on it.

I have a centos 6.6 with kernel 2.6.32-504.1.3.el6.x86_64. On the one hand, I cannot mount the partition normally, meaning that if I simply do it with mount, it says 'unknown filesystem type ntfs'. But it does work with the mount.ntfs-3g command. It works only to the extent that it mounts it. However, when I try to access any folder, it says 'input/output error'. My Windows 7 works just fine, I've never had any problems with my partitions or my hdds. For a while it worked fine, but after some time I came across t
