Help!
I can't open one of disks on my PC, I don't know what to do. I'm not sure what could have done this. Last time I turned on PC everything was fine. Do you think the fact that PC went without electricity for nearly 24 hours? I wasn't able tot turn it off properly because of my UPS no longer working properly.
Update: I managed to copy all my data to a different disk. Problem was caused by one .odt file that was saved incorrectly due emergency incorrect shutdown of PC (thanks to my broken UPS).

Instead of asking too many questions, can you please run a linux-hardware probe so we can see what is your hardware disks etc?
Most likely the partition /dev/sda2 is using ntfs, and marked a "dirty", so linux is refusing to mount it to avoid further damage to it.
You should run
chkdskin a windows machine.
