Subject: Chessmaster 9000 Engine Priority in New 1.0.2 Patch

Hi all,

I've uninstalled, reloaded, and applied all patches to Chessmaster 9000 up to
the new 1.0.2 version. I was most interested in the new Engine Priority option.
However no matter how I set it, Task Manager shows all instances of Engines (as
well as the GUI) running at Normal priority. So I don't understand what this
feature is supposed to be doing. In fact before this I had been running The King
engine using InBetween through the Chessmaster GUI so that I could have the GUI
running at Normal priority and all engine instances running at Low priority,
which greatly improved responsiveness. I had expected something similar with the
new feature. Does anyone know what it's supposed to do? I'm running under
Windows XP Home. Thanks.

Ralph
