I was clear in my question, but no answers are clear.

If I find the exe, then can I open the exe and then type a command?
do I open with a right click and then admin?
Do I have to go to accessories, command window first?
what is max hash
then what step by step.
thanks
from a command window dummy
Suppose the .exe program is is c:\stockfishfolder
and the executable is stockfish-222-32-ja.exe as Jesus mentioned

go to
start --> all programs --> accesories --> command prompt
(this may be slightly changed depending how the system is set up but it is not the only option http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/94 ... rompt.html)

type
c:
cd \stockfishfolder
dir


you should see stockfish-222-32-ja.exe listed.

Then type
stockfish-222-32-ja bench 128 1 12 default depth
as it was mentioned by Jesus
I do no have Stockfish and I am in Linux system :-) but I think this will help you.

I have tried 4 ways opening a command prompt window.
1. left click command prompt in accesories.
2. right click command prompt in acc
3. left click on the exe file for command prompt
4. right click on the exe file for command prompt.

the command prompt window does not seem to be the problem.
it will not accept the commands given

Might be time to give up on the command prompt window. Navigate to your stockfish folder in explorer. Create a new text file. Name it "stockbench.bat" Ignore the warning about changing the extension. Paste the bench test line into that. Save the file. Double click it from explorer.

Dan do you have stockfish?
it is the most complicated folder of all programs.
it is a folder in a folder in a folder etc.
of course it is easy to get to the exe, there are several exe files.
if any of you guys get mad then I am turning my copy of stockfish in for a full refund.

Ok, I bet the problem is the space between Program and Files

Type (pay attention to the quotes)
c:
cd "\Program Files\Stockfish\Intel"
dir


You should see a list that will include stockfish-222-sse42-ja-intel.exe

then type
stockfish-222-sse42-ja-intel bench 128 1 12 default depth
