Sorry if it's all been answered elsewhere. > >Thanks guys, >Tina Long The old way of "globally" increasing the hash table size for every engine no longer works in CM8000. The only way to increase the size is to create a new personality that uses a larger size. Go to "Game Room -> Game -> Set Up Personality". Choose which personality you want to modify (Chessmaster is the default) and change the hash table size setting. Then save the file under a new name (it's best to change the name to something useful like CM32MB). You can then use this new personality just like any others, meaning you can compare the play of two versions of the same personality, with their only difference being their hash table size. You cannot invert the Visual Thinking Window's display. Not a bad idea, though.... jm
