I was working normally on my desktop computer with Windows 8.1, then my power supply stopped working, the PC shut down and it won't turn on again until I replace the power supply (which I can because it's December 31)

I used my converter to connect my FILES (D:) Hard disk via USB to my Ubuntu laptop (It has nothing to do with windows, windows is in another physical hard disk) and I get this error:

enter image description here

I've read this question, but it requires you to start Windows (I can't do it) I need some solution I directly on Linux.

Thank you beforehand!

  • you can not restart your computer and access to Windows ? –  Dec 31 '14 at 21:44
  • If you're talking about my Desktop computer, no, the power supply is not working, so I have the disk where I store my files (not the OS) connected via USB to my laptop, like an external drive. – JuanBonnett Dec 31 '14 at 21:46

    The link provides a number of options without having to boot into windows. – Jacob Vlijm Dec 31 '14 at 21:47

    @JacobVlijm I tried them but it doesn't work if I follow those instructions, I'm new to Ubuntu relatively and I haven't made this before. I've tried them but I think I'm doing nothing – JuanBonnett Dec 31 '14 at 21:53
  • It probably not a hibernation issue since it crashed due to power supply. Sometimes I am unable to mount my windows partitions because windows has them flagged to run a disk check next time Windows boots. I think this is what is happening here. Added an answer. – geoffmcc Dec 31 '14 at 22:22

You may be able to get it working still from Ubuntu

Install ntfs-3g with

 sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g.

Then run the ntfsfix command on your NTFS partition.

For example:

ntfsfix /dev/hda6

Make sure to change /dev/hda6 to whatever it actually is.

Once that finishes, try to mount again.
