Chess master Software is cool but power hungry September 28, 2008 Prasad Mapatuna (Homagama Sri Lanka) I have used chessmaster around 12 years ago and the chessmaster 9000 interface is still the familiar old. However, I ran in to an issue which I remember running in to 12 years ago as well. In the middle of the chess master session, my computer freezes. Looks like the software is really power hungry. My laptop is not all that great for running this type of a game. However, I did not expect it to freeze my laptop regular basis. Once in a while would have been ok. I am working on this issue now and will update my review based on the outcome.
I relied on Amazon August 28, 2008 Charles Lieving This is the only Chessmaster game I have owned.I did not buy the latest version based on Amazon reviews. The bottom line is I like it. My chess ability being what it is, I will never even come close to beating it. I recomend it.
Chessmaster 9000 January 20, 2008 Patrick Trainor 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
If you enjoy spending hours fiddling with software that doesn't run properly, searching every possible website imaginable to help troubleshoot that software, and reading a 40 page PDF file hoping to find a morsel of useful information on installation, then Chessmaster is the game for you. A colossal waste of time. I have purchased many other games and had no trouble installing and running them, but this one is pure frustration. I managed to get a few false starts with this game which merely let me watch the introductory video that tells you how great the game is. Funny thing is, that's the only part of this software that worked. Now I get to find out how difficult they will make it for me to return it for a refund.
Full install fails January 7, 2008 William H. Hutchison (Anchorage Alaska USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Chessmaster 9000 fails to install the complete package. I bought two of them, returned one, the unopened one I got for my kids. Maybe it would work on an older version of Windows than XP, but I wouldn't bet on it.
