Subject: Fritz and Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual
|
Hi I am pretty new to Windows and recently got Fritz (in fact, I bough
a PC in order to just run Fritz, as chess software for Mac is nil).
also got a copy of "Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual" on CD-ROM by ChessBas
but I have no idea how to use it and there are, of course n
instructions.
It seems like there are several ways of going about it and I'm jus
wondering if someone could give me a little advice about the best wa
to do it. I imagined that it would be something like a printed boo
except that it would have dynamic illustrations along with text an
then at the end of a section it would offer positions to play agains
the computer to see if the just material covered was understood.
Perhaps these things are not set up that way. I'd like to us
additional programs to use with Fritz to improve my game (perhaps on
on the middle game next and then on on the opening) if this works ou
well so I'm hopeful that I can get off to a good start. Thanks ver
much for your help. Happy holidays!

I have news for you Blazo. I have been using Windows since 3.1 and I still
don't know how to start up certain CB software. I keep clicking until
something useful comes up. The latest Middlegame Trainer I bought was the
first CB program I've owned that contained simple how-to instructions.

OK I think that I've figured it out. It's a matter of having a numbe
of windows open at the same time and going back and forth.
Can anyone reccomend other similar programs I should definately chec
out that are good?
