(If you had Chessmaster 10th edition, the official patches would fix the 'CD in the drive' problem, but not so for Chessmaster 9000. (You'd have to insert the CD in the drive every 14 days or 20th use, whichever comes first.) You can fix this problem, but you'd have to apply an unofficial 3rd party 'No CD crack'. Unfortunately, the Chessmaster 9000 patches don't eliminate the need to have the CD in the drive.

Chessmaster 7000 includes thousands of options, such as 3-D chess boards, 500,000+ game database, and expert assessment by renowned chess masters. Just let me know if you want to give it a try. Chessmaster has improved the interface, allowing for a more enjoyable experience. I'd have to fill you in with all the details. If you want to try installing and patching Chessmaster 9000, I could try to help you with that. What Windows operating system are you running? I had some problems getting Chessmaster 9000 completely patched in Windows 7, but I did finally get it done. Pain.īecause of the crashing, it sounds like maybe you never patched the program. It's been awhile, but I seem to remember it crashing and also needing the disk in my DVD all the time, or it would keep asking for it. I still have the Chessmaster 9000 disk(s). Sorry, Ed, the images looked so visually similar to Arena, I thought the pics were an older version. He duidn't state they were from any particular GUI, he simply stated somethings about a few different ones and showed some pics. (Note that you can right-click any image and select VIEW IMAGE for a larger view. Finally, one can also infer the images were from Lucas Chess, since he spoke so highly of it in his post. Note that in the first image the name 'Lucas Chess' is clearly visible in the upper left. That's fine but then if you didn't know what program they were from, why did you somewhat contradict him with your quote 'Did the images in post #26 appear by alternate means, or am I seeing things?' after he stated they weren't from Arena?

He didn't specify what images he had displayed and I was unable to read anything on the headers of the pics to determine what I was looking at. You're seeing images, but he didn't say they were images of Arena. Did the images in post #26 appear by alternate means, or am I seeing things ?
