What is the file system on the hard disk that you are trying to access using Live CD?

if not, then
type df in the terminal to see the currently mounted partitions and their mount points.

Its in NTFS format.i have not hibernated it,I just restarted the system and entered ubuntu using usb.i will check and post the result of df.thank you.
Boot to Windows, schedule a disk scan, reboot, let the disk scan complete and then reboot into Ubuntu.
ok guys here is another screen shot of gpart.which may give more information and that df command returns with an error that "cannot read table of mounted file systems: Input/output error".
Have you tried a cold boot?

try this in terminal.
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
and post the output.
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt

Turning on the computer after it has been completely powered off.
