I have had a problem with Junior 9 for single chip. It would not even start
without crashing, until, I installed Deepfritz 9 and chose the option repair.
Without this I could not auto232 the dam thing?  The font not saving, was a big
pain.
I am not a beta tester for Chessbase, nor am I going to copy to clipboard, and
send them the details.  It only took me 3 hours of time to get the thing
working.  Good job I had nothing better to do on a Saturday Afternoon?!

BTW Fritz 8 and J8 had the TB problem you alluded to.  I copied the tbaccess
thing as well.  Plus would not then run any UCI engines. Exciting times
ahead....

Apart from all this Junior 9 is working.  Now where is that bottle of vodka I
was saving for Christmas?
