Instructions for Windows 98 :
1. Open My Computer
2. Click on "View" (Affichage)
3. Click File Options
4. Click Tab "Files Types"
5. In the liste find "Portable Game Notation"
6. Click on the icon
7. Click on Modify      (You have a new dialog box)
8. Click again on Modify (New dialog box)
9. Click on Browse
10. Find your Winboard engine (typically in c:\Program Files\Winboard\
    Winboard.exe
11. Click on the icon for Winboard.exe
12. Click open
13. Click OK (Top window)
14. Click Close twice

Whenever you click on a pgn file Winboard should now start.
CM6k will still read pgn file if needed

Enjoy :)))
