Thanks for the tips, I will switch off this option.
Golem, you are not using the 64bit version of Rybka are you? In that case Toga and few other engines are already ahead of the 32bit version.
No, I'm not using the 64 bit version of Rybka. I've played this tournament on a 32 bits computer.
By the way, where can I find this 64 bits beta version of Rybka 1.0 ? Is it a "legal" version (approved by Vas) ?
The 64bit version is perfectly legal, and it is in the same folder were you have Rybka 1.0 32 bit unless you deleted it..

Ok, I found it in the zip file. I did not see it the first time, I must be blind sometime. Thank you for the help.

You are not blind, you just didnt see it because you didnt have any use for it at the time. Then again I have to sometimes search for things when I need them badly, and then realize that it was right on my desk all along.
