[QUOTE="rws762, post: 1419735, member: 133640"] I just wanted to make sure I'm on the same page, should I reinstall the OS on the existing HD again clean, update it, then let it run this way for a day before installing the TM restore? I don't run anything exotic, mainly Office 08, Firefox, iLife, and maybe Photoshop Elements. When you mention using Disk Warrior did you mean repair my TM backup or my internal HD? I was wondering if something in the TM backup is screwed up (sorry about the technical talk), which is why the beach balls occur after restoring TM. I don't mean to be a pest, and I really do appreciate all the advice. I'm willing to go "under the hood" if necessary, it will be a bit more of an adventure than a PC. [/QUOTE]
