Okay! So I'm in a tricky situation here. I'm wanting to split my C Drive (Which has 1 partition taking up the entire drive) into 2 partitions. If you have a suggestion OTHER than GParted then please, skip the rest and type that up right now!
Anyways, I've used GParted in the past with great luck. So, recently, I've decided to get back into Linux. I was going to put it on a separate partition but there's one issue: I only have one single partition. Now, I could format (Which I've done SO many times recently) but I'd really hate to lose my current settings and I'm a bit limited in the case of back up anyways.
On to the issue. I put GParted live (following the steps on the website) on a 4 GB flash drive that I've used several times before in bootable images, such as a Windows installation. I boot into the drive, and GParted's little message flashes on screen really quick before taking me to a blank window with nothing more than a blinking cursor. The only option from there is to force the PC to shut off, as the computer no longer responds to input.
I really hope someone has a suggestion, and thanks in advance! Request any more information you may need. (I've also posted this in the GParted forums but with no luck, I want a faster response)
