I was trying to partition my drive with GParted while using the KDE Live CD, and I got an error that said
1040>1024= not supported yet then it said to free up less space. Ummm, help please.
I appreciate your time and concern, thank you!

Where did you have 1040? Change it to 1024.

Could you list the output of this command?
You could technically reformat the parition to use 1024 byte blocks to satisfy that GParted version limitations:
sudo fdisk -l /dev/sddsdd being replaced with your drive and not a partition.

Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it! I really don't want to format my drive, as it has windowsXP on it. I have since installed it on an older computer that I have, and I'm resolved to just using the Live-CD on this laptop. Again, thank you very much for your help, you have been great!
Sincerely,
Mike
