There may be as many as two copies of this font file on your hard drive, one in
the Chessmaster directory and one in your Windows/Fonts directory. RIGHT AFTER
booting up your machine, find and delete those two files. Then, uninstall
Chessmaster and re-install it. Things should work fine.

If CM7000 is also failing, you should do the same thing with CM7000.TTF.
