Cannot mount FAT32 partition

After updating my arch install a few days ago I cannot mount my FAT32 partitions. The partitions worked fine before, but now when I go to mount them nothing happens at all, not even an error. They use to automount. When I go to my computer I can see all partitions but when I click on them nothing happens. I don't see the partitions in the fstab either. The partitions work fine in windows so it is not the data, any suggestions?

Thanks in advanced.

Re: Cannot mount FAT32 partition

Have you tried to put the following in /etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!-- -*- XML -*- -->

<!DOCTYPE pkconfig PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD PolicyKit Configuration 1.0//EN"
"http://hal.freedesktop.org/releases/PolicyKit/1.0/config.dtd">

<!-- See the manual page PolicyKit.conf(5) for file format -->

<config version="0.1">
    <match action="org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable">
        <return result="yes"/>
    </match>
    <match action="org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.*">
    <return result="yes"/>
    </match>
</config>
