[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1176555, member: 46727"] Welcome to the Mac Forums. An NTFS drive or partition should mount regardless of which driver is being used. The driver only provides read and write capability. Having said that, read on.... I don't particularly like NTFS-3G as it's been known to cause corruption which may be the reason the partition won't mount now. I can't say for certain that it's the culprit but it could very well be. Do you have any data on that partition that you can't afford to lose? Otherwise, I recommend wiping the partition, creating it again, and re-format as NTFS. Then, instead of using NTFS-3G purchase [URL="http://www.paragon-software.com/home/ntfs-mac/"]Paragon NTFS[/URL] from Paragon software. ($19.95) [/QUOTE]
