Unfortunately we can not play both versions against one another unless you use 2 different PC's or 2 separate interfaces and play the games between them manually. You can always reinstall your Fritz 7 program. If you have the English version, that should have the 7,0,0,2 engine version. The first upgrade, as far as I know, only affected the Fritz 7 interface, and not the 7,0,0,2 engine. First remove your 7,0,0,6 engine and place it somewhere other than the Engines folder. At least the earlier Fritz 6 upgrades would rename the Fritz 6 engine to "Fritz 6 Old and then the new version as just Fritz 6. That way you could compare both engines the easy way. Brian
