Hi Michael
Just tried your settings, but unfortunately
without success: when I start Fritz8-GUI with
SmarThink the GUI shows a hash table size of
only 1 MB [despite correct settings in the
smarthink.ini] although TaskInfo2000 announces
correct values as per ini-file. And still no
access to the EGTB in the search !! And also
problems when switching between playing and
anylising mode. I am giving up using SmarThink
ยจ under Fritz8-GUI
