9.22.99 My fellow members-- Does anyone know of any bugs in the mschess program? (I downloaded it some time ago and believe it was a freeware on the MicroSoft site. I can find and pass along this information if it is necessary to figuring out the problem below.) While playing the other day on the beginner level (I played white), I tried to move my king to a "safer" square when the program would not allow it. It was then that I noticed the program showed me in check. I hadn't noticed this before since I was not in check (or even seriously threatened late in the game). Then, suddenly, the white pawn on the adjacent diagonal (the "checking" pawn) flashed, turned to black and I was in a seriously threatened position. Does anyone have any information on this? Also, would anyone have a short answer (I wouldn't want to tie-up the message board) on how a basic "bug check" might be accomplished on someone else's program? Any information would be appreciated. Yours, Kelly Patterson
