Subject: Help! My Chess Programs Can't Read Tablebases from CD-ROM Drive!

I bought new Endgame Turbo CD-ROMs from Gambit-Soft. I expect my Hiarcs 7.32,
Junior 6.0, and tablebase 1.0 running under ChessBase 7 to read tablebases
directly from CD-ROM drive of my laptop. I did not wish to install all of the
Endgame Turbo tablebases on my hard disk because of not enough space. When
running Hiarcs 7.32 engine, Junior 6 engine, or tablebase 1.0 under CB7, it
failed to read tablebases directly from CD-ROM drive. The chess programs except
tablebase 1.0 started to compute instead. However, it has no problem reading
tablebases from hard disk.

So, how can I solve the problem so that the chess programs and tablebase 1.0
will successfully read tablebases directly from CD-ROM?

I will appreciate your help a great deal.

Thanks in advance,
Eran
