This function use to work 6 months ago but now since i got a new hard drive and reinstalled the Rebel Tiger i can't hook up to a chess site such as FICS. What do i need to do in order for Chess Tiger to find any chess site but especially interested in FICS. This is what i do: 1) First i open up an internet console 2) Then i click on internet at top of console 3) This brings up a login box that asks for my name and password 4) I only put in a made up name called Mateking and left password blank! I wasn't sure about this but from doing some reading on FICS i was under the impression that you don't need to register unless you want to play rated games. I tried to register with my DSL broadband account "Telocity" but a message came back that said they don't allow "free email accounts". Well, this is crazy as my account cost me $49.95 per month!!! 5) So, i then click on the connect button All that shows on the internet console is many scrolling lines of messages that say error connecting to server and it never connects me to any chess server. Do i need to put in an address of the chess server i want to connect to? Thanks in advance for any help, i appreciate any information you can share! Best Regards, Terry
