i installed windows 8 64 bit AND ubuntu 13.04 64 bit. in my laptop. my problem is when i login in ubuntu i can't see other windows partition unless ubuntu partition or fail to mount windows partition(NTFS). when i click on the any partition unless ubuntu partition i got error message.
The error message would be......Unable to access “New Volume”
Error mounting /dev/sda7 at /media/nishanth/New Volume: Command-line `mount -t "ntfs" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,dmask=0077,fmask=0177" "/dev/sda7" "/media/nishanth/New Volume"' exited with non-zero exit status 14: The disk contains an unclean file system (0, 0).Metadata kept in Windows cache, refused to mount.Failed to mount '/dev/sda7': Operation not permitted The NTFS partition is in an unsafe state. Please resume and shutdown Windows fully (no hibernation or fast restarting), or mount the volume read-only with the 'ro' mount option.

- shutdown Windows using Command prompt and type this command in command prompt shutdown /s /t 0
- Then reboot to Ubuntu now you can see the windows partition in ubuntu.
Any of you may get this problem try it and solve the problem.
