I had no problem.
I downloaded the patch unzipped to a directory
c:\programfiles\chessbase\Fritz6e
clicked on the setup icon in the directory Fritz6e
clicked the repair option as stated at chessbase
the new engine installed to my Chessbase\engines folder
engine dated 12/16/00.

Once installed Fritz never even asked for the F6 disc when
I ran the new engine.

I would like to hear something from Chessbase on what this patch actually
fixes.

Sarah.
