Thank You Odd Gunnar!

Yes this your Config for Gandalf is right an Gandalf runs also perfect under
Fritz7!

German: Deine angegebene Config. (Wb2UCI.eng) für Gandalf 5.1 habe ich so
ausprobiert und Gandalf läuft so bestens unter Fritz 7. Gandalf nimmt sich
tatsächlich seine hashgröße aus seiner *.ini (*.res) das habe ich enbenfalls
getestet.

Best wishes,
Eduard
