[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1701323, member: 46727"] Have you done another Disk Utility check from Recovery after reformatting and reinstalling El Capitan? Your specs show a 24" iMac which is a rather old iMac and if the hard drive is original, it may need to be replaced. As to the Time Machine problem, have you tried other backup dates (assuming you have been steadily making TM backups)? Also... were you ever able to restore from any of your TM backups before? In other words, are your TM backups good? Sorry about all the questions, but it's always a good idea to test your backups before the time comes to actually having to depend on them to restore.
