Hi Damir, what' executable did you use? What is your hardware specs?

[Damir]

I tried Invictus.r340.pext.exe. My hardware is Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6950X CPU @ 3.00GHz 3000MHz, (10 cores, 20 threads)
I set the engine to play with 18 Threads and 512 MB Hash on Playchess server when this error occured with 2 cores less. Maybe there is a bug with MultiPV code?
