I had the same problem and found out that the "max moves" settings is actually a ply value, so leaving it at default should be ok (600 is 300 moves out of book). Yes, this ply count starts when the engines are out of book. Yet I find the chessbase GUI not very stable though. The Shredder Clasic Guis is the most stable imho. Ernst.
