CM is played manually, ponder off and always manually freezing the GUI (which does not work 100% for all programs, for example while fritz is running CM gets 5-6% of CPU, in contrast to Shredder, which manages to get almost all CPU time. Reason is unclear to me). You are right with the CM settings. Sorry. I should have mentioned that I took the settings, which I found on your homepage. I thought that these settings are standard since I read so much about CM6666 and CMQueen+. I will add a comment, which states this explicitly. Actually I decided for Queen+ since you came to the conclusion that it is the strongest CM setting - or am I wrong? Thanks, Joachim
