What does dmesgsay?

#

it says what's wrong there. Run fsck om it (while it's not mounted)

#

Haven't used ntfs in ages. Not sure what provides fsck.ntfs. Could it be sys-fs/ntfs3g still? That uses fuse though and not the kernel driver (AFAIK)

#

Try fsck -t ntfs /dev/device

#

Did it do anything? Can you mount it now?

#

You might need to install ntfs3g to get the tools to verify disk

#

Or boot Windows and let Windows fix it

#

It is. However there does not appear to be any other tools available do to fsck on ntfs on Linux

hmm

#

Yeah.. Sounds like something goes wrong with the native driver

#

Maybe some additional kernel option needs to be enabled? What kernel are you using? Maybe give gentoo-kernek-bin a try and see if it works there?

Hm OK. I don't know what it could be in that case. Sorry!
