Chess with the DGT board

Post by Celadus »

I had not played on the DGT board with Chessmaster10 edition for a while.

First try Chessmaster made 3-4 moves then froze. One day spent removing and installing the software and finally success; it replied normally.

Then gamekeeper. Could not get it to operate for two days. Then finally ohla;success. Why it started to work; no idea but it does.

This is a great way to play chess for those who are under 1900 elo.

I played games with deep Hiarcs 12 on the DGT board on handycap and fun levels.
I found the adjustments much too fine to get a game suited to myself.
My computer mouse was unable to move the game level pointer and not cause a big difference in play level.

A pity because Hiarcs is enjoyable to play against. Of cause this is not a Hiarcs problem. It is the Fritz gui.
