I have Hiarcs 7.32 on a CD. I want to get the solution to a K+N+P (d-pawn) vs.
K+B (black-sqared B). Looking on the CD in the folder \Tbs and pointing my file
c:\windows\chssbase.ini in the [Tablebase} section to the proper folder on the
CD, what is supposed to happen when I go into Chessbase 7?
I get the position on the board, and click on "Start Tablebase 1.0".
I hear the CD whirr for a few seconds and that is all.
On the CD, in the \Tbs folder, there is a file called "Nbkpnbb.emd"
Is this the right tablebase, e.g, does the Hiarcs 7.32 CD have all the 5-man
tablebases, and if not, how would I get this one and what name would it have?
How does one know if Chessbase has found the right tablebase file on the CD,
and even if it has, how long does it take to produce a solution?
Thanks to all you Tablebase experts, including Mr. Nalimov.
