<SNIP>
OK, that partition seems to be hosed.  I tried to mount it to copy off a couple of files before reloading and mount gave me an error saying the ftype was wrong or the superblock is corrupt.  It suggests looking at dmesg which had 4 messages saying basicly that the inode is corrupt and suggests running CHKDSK.  Of course I can't do that either on an NTFS partition without windows :)

Looks like I wipe it and re-install Vista, Office and Ubuntu instead of playing tonight.
