Hello Again, Forgot to say can you tell us which version of Arena this is please? And additional info from Hans is.... According to "The Oxford Companion to Chess" Second Edition on Page 134 on "fifty-move law" says: "If both players have made 50 moves without capturing a man or moving a pawn, a player whose turn it is to move may claim a draw except for six BASIC ENDGAMES for which the number of moves is extended to 75: these are Q v. B + B, Q v. N + N, B + B v. N, N + N v. P, Q + P one square from promotion v. Q, and R + B v. R." so I have some sympathy for Arena and Crafty... Hans Kind Regards Christopher
