3 out of 4 computers it did not work properly on.

And I have heard and read that people have been experiencing illegal errors
popping up on their screens. The place I bought it from when I contacted them
about another matter said that two people have bought it back because after a
normal installation absolutely nothing happened when trying to run the program,
even though their system was okay everywhere else.

He had also recieved a few calls about other matters concerning CM7K. But when
questioned about this more, he said that all in all, there have been no more
than what he would expect from people buying any other chess programs. For some
everything is okay, then for another nothing works.
