Simple.

There is a DIR on the Junior, Fritz, and HIARCS CD called TB.  Just copy that
directory to your HD.  You can call the directory anything.  TB, tablebases,
whatever is easy for you.  Then go into your Windows directory, (Windows or
WINNT) and search for a file called "chssbase.ini".  Open it in Notepad, and
edit the TBPath, to where you have moved it on your hard drive, such as
c:\tablebases.  Also, up the hash.  Depending on how much free memory you have.
I have 256MB and usually use 16MB on cache for the tablebases.  That's it.
Also, you can always go to Hyatt's FTP site and download all of the 3/4/5's.
Just download them to your c:\tablebases directory.

I hope I helped!

You're welcome in advance!
