Please can someone post me best link to best chess browser..

[S.Taylor]

I am STILL living without a chess browser and unable to download chess engines and use them.
Still after all this time. I have never been succesful in getting a fully workable, user friendly chess engine up and working on my computer.

Maybe since i have had it repaired, it will work better now?

What i want is the best carrier and to know how to insert a chess engine into it, and to be able to use all functions (infinite, set up etc), easily. And that i should not be told in the middle of a game that it's time out and i may not continue playing.

Then i would like to put into it the best version of SF or asmfish.

Which OS are you using? Windows? Mac? Linux? And how much RAM & processor? And what are your specific means? Need a database? An engine? A PGN browser? A mix of the 3 ?

You could use WinBoard (Windows) / XBoard (Linux, Mac):

What do you call "a chess browser" ?

[hgm]

From the description he gave of what he wants it to do I gathered he meant a GUI.

I'd recommend HIARCS Chess Explorer.

If I were you, I would try to get some help from someone with a mind for such things (computers, chess programs). Even if that would be frowned upon a bit in your community, surely there must be someone? Maybe the women are more practical than the men...

I would recommend Shredder, but it is not cheap. If you can't get it to work I don't know anymore...

From a recent thread in this forum:

What's the difference between Shredder Classic 4 a Shredder Classic 5.

I have just added some more infos to shredderchess.com. Please see here:

There are links to the new features and some screenies.

You would have thirty days to try this out. It does not have the new Deep Shredder 13 which is rather expensive unfortunately, but a little bit less strong Shredder, and that uses only a single thread (as far as I know):

Michael B and Robert Maddox please write about and do not write nonsense.

They have told you everything there was to know.

Mr Szots is talking nonsense too.

On this side people can download a 30days trial of the Classic 5 gui:

Of course, in contrast to Shredder, Winboard is totally free. A probably incomplete overview of more GUIs to try, from recent postings: Arena is free. The new CuteChess GUI is an exciting development too: http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopi ... echess+gui

There is ChessGUI from Matthias Gemuh although it is no longer in active development.

Arasan from Jon Dart has its own GUI http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopi ... ght=arasan At the end of 2016 Sirius Chess GUI is planned http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopi ... torder=asc

SCID is good to browse games and analyze with engines : http://scid.sourceforge.net/

Sometimes you must do what is required. So get Arena GUI @ http://www.playwitharena.com/?Download:Arena_3.5.1
