What is happening is Fritz 6 just stops playing in some endgames. I see no pattern to it except it is usually late endgames and score is mostly drawn. This happens with sometimes 1.5 to 2 minutes still left on the clock. It just sits there and will not move even with the spacebar. So far all I've played is Game/5 minutes (auto232) but it happened in the engine/engine games also. Instead of having a score like 1-0 or 1/2-1/2 it will show a +- or = sign in the database in the engine/engine games. I have not seen this when running it under Fritz 5.32 GUI. Jim Walker
