Dear Computer Experts, I just became the proud owner of Chess Tiger 14.0 and Gambit Tiger 2.0 (purchased from our host, ICD) with ChessBase interfaces. Anyway, both of them show 384 MB of RAM available for hashtables, but they only accept a maximum of 96 MB. I have an AMD 1.4 GHz computer with 512 MB of RAM with a Windows 98 OS. I've tried increasing the RAM while in the "Load Engine" box. But when I return to that box to see if it accepted the larger hashtable size, only 96 MB shows up. I'd like larger hashtables for overnight analysis. Since I purchased extra RAM capacity, I'd like to utilize it. Can any of you experts tell me what, if anything, I'm doing wrong? I called John at ICD and his Chess Tigers accept the larger hashtables without problems (he has Windows 2000). So either I'm doing something obviously wrong, or there's a bug in my program, or there's a difference between Windows 98 and 2000 that affects this. I've read Steve Lopez's T-notes and there's no mention of this problem. Please help. Thanks! Steve
