Put them all in one folder. In this case C:\tablebase or bases
You can also check the extensions are the same as Hyatt's are differnt from CB's
and in my case at one time I had a few of both and it only recognized one type.
Anyway if they are all Hyatt's then they'll work fine.

Open explorer right click on your tablebase folder after they are all in there
and right click on properties it should say size 7.05 GB.

The path says c:\tablebases you could actually name your folder tablebases
instead of tablebase

[Tablebase]
Path=d:\Tablebases
