Denicio Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I wanted to ask for help in fixing the "About This Mac" crash on AMD systems. Not even Login Window 10.4.4 seems to work for me, it always crash and relaunches Finder. Also Restart doesn't work for me, it shuts down Display and nothing happens. I'm using uphuck's 10.4.9 with Universal Kernel 2. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/53147-about-this-mac-for-amd-solution/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Snowski Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I only have one issue left and that is the restart. It just hangs (pc keeps running) with monitor in standby. Any ideas?

wtsamatta Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 I've had the reboot problem since 10.4.6, only thing that seems to work for me is shut down instead, then hit the power button.

mythin Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 same problem. I have Tubgirl's 10.4.8 which i updated using tubgirls patch to 10.4.9. everything works flawless, except about this mac crashes me to a blue screen, and i have to reboot. any help would be awesome, thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/53147-about-this-mac-for-amd-solution/#findComment-389503 Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtremeskier97 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Yes...please post the solution here to ALL can see. This would be most helpful. Thanks. **EDIT** I was just browsing around the forums and happened upon the solution (it worked on my Intel system anyway) Put your uphuck 10.4.9 1.3 dvd in and browse to system ----> installation ----> packages...and look for loginwindow.10.4.4.pkg. Double click and install it. Once you restart the system...you'll be able to open the "about this mac" without error....atleast it worked for me on my system. Good luck.

C Nuttin Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I don't believe that fixes it for AMD systems... at least not mine. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/53147-about-this-mac-for-amd-solution/#findComment-389676 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R0GUE Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Sorry, I've not been around much lately to keep an eye on this thread. Try this LW fix Once extracted, open the terminal and type: sudo -s rm -rf /System/Library/CoreServices/loginwindow.app Drop the new loginwindow into the correct folder, repair permissions and reboot. Don't blame me if this blows up your system Good luck all!

This also worked for me on my Intel Celeron 2.4 ghz If you all are not sure on how to repair permssions Right click on the file and then go to Get info and at the bottom click on owner and permssion and change who controls file back to system and then reboot Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/53147-about-this-mac-for-amd-solution/#findComment-394314 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just an FYI. You can also run it in Terminal by putting in sudo diskutil repairpermissions / Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/53147-about-this-mac-for-amd-solution/#findComment-394389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
