Thanks for your answer Mark. Actually, my handle on the playchess server is
"swissmaster". I think you are probably right, but sometimes i lose against 1 to
2 ghz computers, when mine is 2,66 ghz. Could it be a problem of RAM? Or maybe I
don't use the correct hashsize (often about 90 mb)?
Anyway, thx. See you maybe on the playchess server.
