The Fritz5 Patch needs two .dll files not included with the patch --
but both come with CBLight.  If you download CBLight, just take
the two .dlls that the Fritz5 Patch setup program asks for and put
them in the Fritz5 directory.  Then Fritz5 patch becomes almost
fully fuctional Fritz5.  No opening book, but you can import old
opening books from other programs.  Also, make sure to set the
drivecnt variable to 0 in the f5.ini file in the Fritz5 directory.
That will avoid many of the refueling problems.
