Not sure what the problem could have been, i tried it twice with no luck.

I tried flashing a different rom as well...same problem....and now my backup isnt working!!!! OH NO!

EDIT1: It worked once, before i tried flashing a new rom....i wiped, then cache wiped, twice each and now trying restore from backup again.

EDIT2: After wiping twice, tried the backup again and it worked. Going to try wiping and loading the rom now, maybe thats the problem.

EDIT3: Turns out I needed to wipe default data AND cache....then install the rom. Booted right up for me! WOO!
Another happy wiper! Congrats! I've read instructions that recommend 2 wipes per each storage area.
We were talking about the wipe yesterday:

So in the immortal words of OMJ:
