Only powers of 2 are available. The maximum that is available is machine
dependant, based on your CURRENTLY AVAILABLE PHYSICAL RAM. So, if you want the
highest setting possible, shut down all other programs. The reason for the
forced limitation is because MOST users of Chessmaster are not as computer-savvy
as the people on this board, and allowing ANYBODY to go up to 256MB on their
machine could cause some serious problems with people who didn't really know
what that meant (which is more people than you would care to think about).
