Not such a huge problem, I usually just work around things that don't work so well in free programs. It's hard to complain about free stuff. I'll probably try to load it as an epd to get around the problem. > >BTW why did you have to reboot ? > >Regards, Uli Yep, every 1/2 move the computer got rebooted. What I did was make a Windows ME emergency boot floppy, and then I deleted everything on it except command.com, and that was the only way I could get Dos Comet to use 64mb hashtables. It's easy with the Winboard or Chessbase versions, but the Winboard version lacks versatility, and I don't know all that much about the Chessbase interface. Pete
