What is the output of the command

sudo fdisk -l

in a terminal? From that you can find out which partition is NTFS and 
has Windows on it. Usually it is on /dev/sda1 and then the (hd0,0) 
applies but if you have more than one harddisk or if you put it on 
another partition than sda1 it may be different.

Dear Nils, 

Thank you for your insight and help. I now understand what I am doing for the most part, as for the partition it was simply (hd0,1). I can now say that everything is working properly.

Thanks again,
-Mike
