Well I never got the connection 1.04 to operate. After reinstalling all my
Chessbase software I decided to put the 1.03DEV manually into "Devices" and
that did the trick, however I noticed, although it ran the connection to and
fro from computer to DGT board, that H8's GUI board would turn RED after it, H8
responded, and I had to move my mouse to see the wooden border again...sigh..,
so it would be better if I could get 1.04dev working instead of using the old
1.03dev.

What I'm wondering is...does the problem lie with the Q3 programme? Do I have to
update to Q4 or Q4.4 programme for the DGT Board to be able to access this new
1.04dev.?

If so I think I'm ready to shoot myself! Arrrrgghhh!

Jeroen is that my error, a simple programme upgrade for my DGT Board?

I'm guessing it may be the case. I may have to update to Queen 4.4?

What bugs me though, is at the DGT Projects site, it says 1.03dev. is their
latest driver? Huh?

Very Heavy....duh!?...Sigh...
