John,

The path in cm.ini is:
EGDBPath=C:\Documents and Settings\Steven\My Documents\Chessmaster 9000\EGDB

And the EGDB files are there.

Now, I'm curious.  I installed CM9000 in another directory of my choosing in a
different logical disk partition.  I do this so I can isolate the O/S on the C
partition and I get miffed when software developers just put things not related
to the O/S on the C partition instead of loading the files in the partition and
location I specify.  Why was this done with CM9000?

Could this be part of the difficulty?

Steve
