Hi,

One question: "Intel Q6600 Quad Core ,Ponder off ,All engines 32-bit 1CPU " so are You running 2 games simultaneously or 4? With ponder off
there can be four games running at the same time, or can there?

I think it's safest to always have a core free, but there are others who disagree.

Umko 1.1 has replaced Umko 1.0. The Umko games will be replayed.
