Hello,

I got the message in the subject suddenly on  my last tow boots. The 
only partitions being mounted now are my Windows partition, and my 
Programs {for windows} partition. The other ntfs partitions are not 
being mounted and when I try to mount them by using Nautilus I get the 
following dialog of error messages -

Here is what I have in fstab

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

Note that the two partitions that do get mounted are set to ro, while 
the ones not mounting are set to rw. That is the only difference I see.
