Man this is INSANE, I was just shunted from another thread :-S

Anyway, what I wanted to say is that your experience as described above points to the possibility that the FS of the partition you had to manually mount might have had errors. In future if you encounter such a situation first check the partition for errors with chkdsk in Windows and then backup. If the Windows is not bootable use UBCD4WIN.
