I disagree with the previous posters. Linux kernel NTFS support is great FOR READ-ONLY. Write support is experimental and will likely thrash your NTFS partition. arch13 makes a decent point about FAT32, but NTFS is far superior in my opinion.
So, if you only wish to view and copy files from that NTFS partition, you should be fine.
That said, it sounds like you are doing what you should be doing. What error message do you get when you try to mount your NTFS partition?
