Re: "Volume is corrupt, run chkdsk" What's the command?!
You are not running as root your prompt indicates you're still the Knoppix user.
Don't run fsck on NTFS partitions. It's an undefined action -- fsck will skip over NTFS partitions because there is no fsck tool implemented for NTFS..
chkdsk is a Windows tool. There is no Linux chkdsk command.
Run sudo ntfsfix /dev/hda1 to get your command to work, but as someone who was a Windows veteran long before he used Linux, I'd have to warn you that you can seriously screw up your Windows filesystem doing this, and it should only be attempted if every other possible solution fails.
EDIT: Which is your NTFS drive? Replace hda1 with hda2, as it seems from fsck output that hda2 is NTFS.
