Hi Paul,

When you mean "access" do you mean viewing the files on the partition? If so
you will need to install ntfsprogs which in Fedora can be done by

yum install ntfsprogs

Google how to add to this to your /etc/fstab which will permanently mount
the Vista FS each time you boot.

For Skype take a look

and go through it there maybe some other apps that may take your interest.

If you need anymore assistance just reply here

Kind Regards,
Will
