If the NTFS file system under Windows, put thje drive into a machine running the same Windows operating system, or install Windows on a spare HDD for instance and add the HDD as a slave or a second drive, take possession of the files and see if you can decompress them. Otherwise we can't really answer your question beyond that without more info..
