Unfortunately I am not familiar with CM 9000. If you are using Aristarch as a
WinBoard engine, it must work. Probably you are using it is an UCI engine, and
here it is important that the UCI parameter "OwnBook" is switched on. Just have
a look into the Aristarch UCI options, you might find it there - there's also
the possibility that it is shown somewhere else with a slightly different title,
for example in the book options (like Shredder does it, "Use engine book").

Regards,
Stefan
