1) Works fine under WinXP. Get the patch at chessmaster.com. From http://www.chessmaster.com/faqs8000.html Q: Does Chessmaster 8000 run on Windows 2000 or Windows NT? A: Chessmaster 8000 does not officially support Windows 2000 or Windows NT, and it has been thoroughly tested only for Windows 95/98. There are only a few Windows 2000/NT specific problems that have been reported, and all of them have been addressed in the patch. However, once again, it must be said that, OFFICIALLY, Chessmaster 8000 does not support Windows 2000/NT.

1) Same error (blank dialog) as in Chessmaster 7000.
2) I've had the problem with the blank dialog box, but found a way out! I'm not sure if it will work for you, but here goes: On my computer I have a modem (Sportster Flash V.90 Voice PnP) with a built-in soundcard. I never use this soundcard (Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device), but uses my "real" soundcard (Aureal). I tried to disable the Unimodem soundcard through the Device Manager, and now CM8000 run like a charm :-)
3) Works Fine with TBird + Abit KT7-Raid, Win2k SP1 + October Compatiblity Update
4) Sort of works but crashes whenever a menu item is accessed. Generally unstable.
5) This is suppose to work under Windows 2000, but this version still doesn't work for me! When it loads up, I get the Chessmaster 8000 screen and then a blank dialog box. This is exactly what happened with the 7000 version (I'm running a RivaTNT PCI card). Game works fine under Windows Millennium.
5) Tried Fix in (2) and it Worked! Only works if you disable modem wave device - Not mapping through that device in the audio setup does not work Windows 2000 2195 SP1 2x550mhz Pentium III on Supermicro DM3 768mb ram videologic sonic fury - 4063 drivers Geforce DDR - detonator 7.52 Directx 8 Final
