JazzD Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 (edited) I installed 10.4.8 by JaS on my system this morning. I have an Epox board with the Intel i848P chipset. Everything works out of the box even my geforce. The only problem I'm facing right now is a crash of the finder when i open the 'About this Mac' dialog. I did actually install the Colonel System Profiler Patch and the System Profiler has the right information now. Any idea why why i get this finder crash? thanks.

Guest Ramm Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Did you install the 10.4 loginwindow patch? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/43439-about-this-mac-findercrash-logout/#findComment-310562 Share on other sites More sharing options...

loonymonkey Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I installed 10.4.8 by JaS last night, and I also have the crash problem when doing "About this Mac". I didnt see a patch called "loginwindow" when I did the install. How can I install this now?

loonymonkey Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 On the DVD:System/Instalation/Packages/10.4.4.loginwindow.pkg I installed it, but it still crashes on "about this mac". Any suggestions? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/43439-about-this-mac-findercrash-logout/#findComment-312998 Share on other sites More sharing options...
loonymonkey Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 bump. Does anyone have a solution? I believe I have the login patch installed, since I get a login window when I boot up. I still crash when I do "About this Mac" though. Any suggestions?

gtsmith Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 look at this thread here, it worked for me...but was a pain in the arse and not certain what the benefit is as you can get to the system information via Utilities http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=44353 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/43439-about-this-mac-findercrash-logout/#findComment-323564 Share on other sites More sharing options...
