I have played about twenty games against it since I got my new processor, but
hiarcs seems to play stronger on my old Pent 120 this is what's odd. My other
programs like rebel are playing much, much stronger than on my other processor,
only hiarcs seems to play very timid, as if the extra speed is making it take
less chances, Now I go to an even endgame in most games, wheras before I would
get blown away before move 30. That is my first win period against hiarcs, but
still I shouldn't even win 1 game especially at that time control?
