Frequently Asked Questions - ChessPartner

1. When I try to start the program, I get a message: "Error loading chess engine", when I continue the program crashes ?
   This is caused by a system file not present during the installation. The file in question is COMCAT.DLL which resides in the windows\system directory. To fix this you have to download and install the ccdist.exe file. Then un-install ChessPartner, reboot, and re-install ChessPartner.
   
   
2. I like to play on-line with a friend using ChessPartner, can you help me ?
   There is a updated help file available which gives a description on how to do this, checkout the downloads section.
   
   
3. When I start the program I get a message: The CP4.EXE file is linked to missing export OLEAUT32.DLL:417, what is wrong ?
   You probably have old or corrupt versions of some of you system files. You can obtain updated versions from the Microsoft website.
   
   
4. The installation hangs halfway while installing Std.ttf. This is on Windows 2000 and also on XP, what's up?
   There appears to be a problem with the installer. Work around is to reboot, then delete the Traveler Standard font using the font applet from the control panel, then reboot and reinstall.
   
   
5. Can ChessPartner make use of the timeseal program ?
   Yes, but you need at least ChessPartner 4.1 In version 4.0 it is also possible to use timeseal, but not automatic, you have to start the timeseal program manually, using some command line parameters to tell it which server to connect to.
