[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1204861, member: 24098"] OK. I wouldn't worry too much about what Disk Utility says as it's really not geared toward NTFS volumes (which OS X can't even write to by default). My guess is the filesystem is damaged in some way. Unfortunately, Windows 7 doesn't have the recovery console, so in Microsoft's feeble effort to make things simpler, they've actually made it a lot more complicated to recover from a situation like this. Here's what I would do... Shut down the machine, turn it back on again and immediately press and hold the Option key until the boot volumes appear. Don't choose one for now. Pop the Windows 7 disc in. After a few moments it should appear as a boot option, choose it. Choose your language and then choose the "Repair your computer" option. Choose the first option from the Recovery Options menu (Startup Repair). That may do the trick. [/QUOTE]
