emcee316 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I had the same problem when I didn't have QE/CI enabled on my video card. Looking at your screenshot it appears you don't have QE/CI enabled either. Try to get QE/CI enabled and then try Time Machine again.

casemon Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 I had the same problem when I didn't have QE/CI enabled on my video card. Looking at your screenshot it appears you don't have QE/CI enabled either. Try to get QE/CI enabled and then try Time Machine again. I had this same problem, then I got QE/CI working and now Time Machine runs, but then crashes Finder and Finder starts and Time Machine exits. Backups work fine... any ideas on how to get Time Machine the app running?
