Topic: Cannot boot gparted? Error 25: Disk Read Error

Hey folks!  I've used GParted many times in the past, but suddenly I can't boot the disc!  When I try to load gparted using any configuration I get "Error 25: Disk read error", Press any key to continue...
And then I get kicked back to the main menu. 

I can't figure exactly what's going on.  I DO have a rather rediculous number of partitions, this being a tri-boot machine with XP, Vista, and Sabayon.  I thought maybe editing the boot options for gparted might help,but I'm not sure what to change.  Searching the forums or google for this error have not so far yielded anything helpful.  Anyone know what's going on?  I'd really appreciate a little help.

Re: Cannot boot gparted? Error 25: Disk Read Error

Hey folks,  someone sent me an email and I accidentally deleted it from my spam folder without looking s closely as I should have so it's gone forever - but i did get to see that the subject line said to use Parted Magic instead as it was deleting.  I don't know who it was, but thanks for the tip!  I'll try it out as soon as I can.  I appreciate the help!
