As you see on the left of the book option screen, even at default, a white opening has to win a certain % of it's games. And black does too. Therefore, if you made a book, and the moves don't meet this criteria, it won't pick them. Lower these % and leave it to 2 games / 1 win. Also, I don't know where you got the games, but there are a LOT of PGN's it doesn't like. Anyway, I have made two books and 1 user book with no problems. This is all I can think of, that would make it not use the book. Also make sure it's not on tournament. Hope this help, Slate
