Code:
sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs
This will install the ntfsfix program with it.

P.s. You do remember the last time's DMESG for your drive don't you? I mean, it should have shown some /dev/sdx or something. Use that?

NTFS Config installs ntfsfix ? I don't think so and nor does it fix NTFS Security Block errors

NTFS Fix should work for you. And if I remember rite, you used to haf XP which crashed. So no Vista, no problem

But first try it on a partition which doesn't haf imp. data.

Haha, but be careful to turn off the window edge triggers for Expose and Window Switcher cause you don't know when you'd accidentally touch those in your random mouse movement while the supervisor's around.
