(fritz and junior - not hiarcs, not shredder,... do make many NPS and do "exploit" the CPU very much. It gets hotter than e.g. running shredder. If your CPU is running near to the edge, the few more degree heating will crash it. You can find out by NOT starting the autoplayer and starting analyse-mode. it is crashing in the same amount of time... its a heatng problem. the only senseful way is IMO a new [bigger or smarter] cpu-cooler.) is it at the end of games, when chessbase GUI saves games and wants to begin another one but crashes ? i have seen such behaviour too. but have no clue what the reason could be.
