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.

I only have one issue left and that is the restart. It just hangs (pc keeps running) with monitor in standby.

 

Any ideas?

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.

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

Actually, you should open up Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions on the whole OS X drive. Just an FYI. You can also run it in Terminal by putting in

sudo diskutil repairpermissions /
