Some questions:

1)Did you use the same opening book for all engines?(like your real tournaments)
2)Do you plan to test at x minutes/40 moves?(it is important to verify that
engines do not have problems in that time control).

I know that movei can work under winboard at that time control but I never
tested under Fritz gui and I do not want bad surprises at that time control in
the last moment(I may send you a later version 24 hours before the tournament
starts but I do not plan to change time handling if there are no special
problems that are only typical to Fritz)
