Thank you for all your help

Wow... After being out of the loop for a bit, there seems to be much of nothing going on?

Give me the results of the following:

Ok, moving on, now post the output of the following:
This may be too much, but I want a good visual. I'm just helping you out, along with showing you what I am doing so you understand a bit on how to do this manually. And please use code tags!

Ok, /dev/sdc is your block device; sdc1 is the partition you need to mount. Perform the following:
Now if this isn't allowing you to mount it, then mount it like so:

No luck, I got the below message

[root@localhost ~]# mkdir /mnt/exthd
[root@localhost ~]# mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/exthd
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[root@localhost ~]# mount -t ntfs /dev/sdc1 /mnt/exthd
mount: unknown filesystem type 'ntfs'
[root@localhost ~]#

Oops, use ntfs-3g. I know this is repetitive, but there were mixed answers before.

I had forgot to tell you, I used ntfs-3g and it was giving same error. Fuse is missing

could you please run following for me and paste results
