Odd. For what it's worth I don't use ntfs much, but I tried ntfs-3g the

The standard implementation of NTFS for Linux is read-only IIRC. There is
NTFS-3g, which is rw, you can try that.
As for the partition being mounted root-only, read the manual page of mount
(man mount). Look in the section "Mount options for ntfs" for the options

I am dual booting my desktop and most everything is working fine.
But, I can't get to my Win 2k disks unless I am logged on as root.
