I actually had done what you said just before reading this post and i had to name all of the files shredder.*. It's working. Though it seems to run slower than the other programs and if it is in infinite analysis i can't just have 1 or 2 lines it's about 7 or 8 lines. Is that how it happens with yours? I know it's shredder running but i wish there was something i could do to confirm it was shredder besides just checking to see if it will make the same moves as the regular shredder. Again it seems to run a little slow it takes a couple of seconds longer to start up once out of book than other progs, but at least it's running. I'd like to get the Chessmaster engine running to but that may be as they say another can of worms. Thanks D
