Upto 4 piece tablebase files are already supplied on the Hiarcs732 cd. There is the opportunity to use this module for 5 piece endgame table generation. However the amount of ram utilised during generation is quite large and there is a sizeable increase in disc storage space required to store the larger tablebase files. I would like to generate the 5 piece tables but i do not have enough ram to do this. This is my understanding having read the text based files supplied on the CD. Keith
