I have had this same problem for over a week.I have followed all the advise from
other members here to no advail.I even went the extra mile and E-Mailed
Chessbase.Chessbase hasn't bothered to send Me a reply(HINT).To save Yourself
some time,check back posts on this issue,You'll see all the approaches tried to
get the up-date didn't work.Keep tring and keep posting here.You know ,if I was
calling the shots at Chessbase ,I think I'de set up a site to where all the
registered users of Fritz 8 could finally get Thier up-date,(however don't get
Your hopes up),Chessbase has our Money and We no longer matter.>>>>Mike
