When you actually click drive icon..gnome asks you for root password.
because you need root privileges for mount command.
Are you sure you entered password or entered correct one?

Labels have been assigned to all NTFS Partitions.
Post the contents of /etc/fstab file and output of df -h command here.
Code:df -h cat /etc/fstab

Try it to mount manually...
execute as root.
# mkdir /media/Softwares# mount /dev/sda8 /media/Softwares/ -t ntfs-3g
