Cannot read file transfered from window to linux via rsync

I backup my files from window XP to linux machine
by calling rsync from cygwin.
When I try to access these file on linux, I could not.

Code:

The rsync command I use:



rysnc -avz * root@machine1:/mnt/dr/

I notice that the owner and file permission got screwed up
when viewing on the linux machine.

Code:

drwx------  11 chaq chaq 4096 May 20 16:51 pic

?---------  ? ?      ?        ?            ? RLS.zip

?---------  ? ?      ?        ?            ? Schaums.pdf

drwx------  4 chaq chaq 4096 Mar 24  2008 school

Therefore, I try to use root user to change owner and persmission
using chown, chmod. However, nothing works. I got a in/output error.
Is the problem because of my disk is failed or the file permission problem?

Code:

#chown root RLS.zip

chown: cannot access `RLS.zip': Input/output error
