Maybe your athlon64 is infected by a virus that makes it slower or maybe another application run at the same time that chess programs run on it. I wonder how much speed improvement you have from the Athlon64 relative to the PentII 450 Rybka is strong but I doubt it it is strong enough top beat Deep Fritz8 at vlitz with more than 1:7 time disadvantage(remember that the 32 bit version is used on PII450). http://www.husvankempen.de/nunn/eloblitzall.html 3 Deep Fritz 8 2CPU 2827 27 29 451 61.6 % 2745 27.5 % 4 Rybka 1.01 Beta 13b 32-bit 2820 20 31 652 69.8 % 2675 23.0 % Uri
