Hi Bob, Ok I have checked the help included in winboard which I have pasted here: /reuse or /xreuse, or /reuseFirst true|false /reuse2 or /xreuse2, or /reuseSecond true|false If this option is True (the default), WinBoard uses the same chess engine process repeatedly when playing multiple games. If the option is False, WinBoard kills off the chess engine after every game and starts a fresh one for the next game. Starting a fresh chess engine can be slow, so it is not recommended. However, some chess engines may not work properly when reused, such as versions of Crafty earlier than 12.0. (Keep in mind I am running Windows 98) However when I go to add it to my winboard parameters in the following parameter list it doesnt seem to accept the true or false values? I assume I am overlooking something very obvious! Here is my winboard parameter command which use to work fine until I added the 2 reuse commands: "C:\Program Files\WinBoard\winboard.exe" -reuse false -reuse2 false -mg 256 -sgf EG800 -tc 2 -mps 40 -cp -fcp=crafty1.exe -fd "C:\Program Files\Crafty1" -scp=crafty2.exe -sd="C:\Program Files\Crafty2" Thanks for your time, Les
