Maybe. But why do you miss that option to not install DX 6.1 ? Aha, I see! I
have had my DX 7.0 installed BEFORE I installed CM. CM's installation detected
that and asked if I want to install 6.1. I said NO.

I tried to run almost all other programs AFTER CM installation. All of them run
perfectly as they should. Now I have both CM6000 and CM7000 on my PC, as well as
a lot of other chess and work programs. And everything seems to be OK.

I don't know other idea for this, but install DX 7.0 first and then CM700 later.
And no 6.1
