Time Machine restore not working (but QE/CI is working!)

[Casemon]

Time Machine restore doesn't work, though Time Machine backup seems to be working...

TimeMachine.app runs, then Finder crashes and TimeMachine exits. Here is the console output:
1/12/08 4:45:43 PM com.apple.launchd[104] ([0x0-0x1a01a].com.apple.finder[172]) Exited abnormally: Segmentation fault

I'm not sure why restore doesn't work, i have full QE/CI working thanks to Zephyroth's nvidia driver installer.

Anyone else seeing this? Any ideas on how to fix it?

* Asus a8n-e (no SLI)
* Athlon64 3000+
* 3x512 DDR 333Mhz
* Asus GeForce 7300GS 256Mb PCI-E 16x
* Both PATA or SATA (working)
* Onboard sound. Using Rev1, I think LineOut works, but I only have connection for Optical / Digital Out and that is NOT working (yet?)

roisoft:People with time machine problems, try with this fix ___http://tinyurl.com/3bplsbThat worked for me!

As of this minute I actually have a perfectly working copy of 10.5.2! I "Marvinized" GarageBand a few minutes ago and the last piece was Time Machine. Thanks!

Nice :)

Thanks, but my problem is if I try and load the time machine program, a finder window opens, but I don't see the time machine program running. I have it working and backing up just fine, I just cant see the program to restore it. The link posted did not fix my problem, I'm running 10.5.1. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your help.I think that usually indicates a problem with your graphics card not (having QE/CI fully supported?) - doesn't it?

[branndon]

Yes, but mine shows qr/ci and i can run iwork, imovie, and my menu bar is transparent... wierd huh... any other ideas?

I got time machine running, the trick is to open finder and click a couple of times on today,yesterday and such down the bottom of the list, then timemachine should start working. I also applied the timemachine patch.

hope this gets it working for everyone

I still cant get it to work. It opens finder then crashes. My vid card is also working. What is the problem?

i can use tm to perform backup, but the finder crashes once i click on the tm app icon...

my spec:
x2 64 3600+
nforce405
2g ram
8600gt (qe/ci enabled)
zeph's 10.5.2

thanks
