How do you use it? I have Fritz and it wont let me load it?

First of all you can not load directly WINBOARD engines with Fritz!
If you want to play WINBOARD engines with Fritz you must use an adaptor(wb2uci).
See :
Fritz is designed to work with UCI engines or Fritz engines.
See database I made if engine is UCI or WINBOARD compatible.
Fritz was designed as a multi-engine system. This means that the graphical user interface and the actual chess engine (the module that calculates moves) are strictly separated. They use a pre-defined interface to communicate with each other.
A UCI Engine is installed in Fritz using the menu "Engines - UCI Engine".
Installing a UCI engine
***********************
Before a UCI engine is displayed in the Fritz engine dialog (F3) it has to be installed. This is done in a few simple steps:
1. Select the option "Create UCI engine" in the "Options" menu.
2. Next you must tell the program where the UCI engine is located. This is done by point and click in the file selector that appears. Use "Browse" and locate the UCI engine on your hard disk.
3. The name of the engine and its author are automatically given. Simply click "OK" to install the engine, which will then be displayed in the Fritz engine list.
4. Note that the UCI engine can be stored in any directory on any partition of your hard disk.
Modifying engine parameters
***************************
Many UCI engines allow you to modify a number of search and evaluation parameters which influence the playing style of the engine. To change the parameters proceed as described above. In the "Create UCI engine" dialog click on the button "Parameters".
Each UCI engine will display the parameters which can be changed, and which vary for different engines. If you change any of the parameters the input fields for "Name" and "Author" become active and can be modified, within the constraints described above.
After clicking "OK" the new engine is registered and will appear in the Fritz engine list, together with the other UCI and native Fritz engines.
Please note: modifying and storing an engine with a different name does not create a new copy of the engine on your hard disk. Only the modified parameters are stored under the new name and applied to the engine when this is started.
If you have problems installing engines wit Fritz try ARENA Chess GUI at : http://www.playwitharena.com/
It's winboard and UCI compatible.

Thanks for this!

madman, thanks for the info. However, most of what you stated is explained in the Fritz help menu. What really needs to be adressed is issues that arise when attempting to install engines when running Windows Vista. In this case, be sure to run as Administrator and enable Compatibility Mode for WinXP (service pack 2) when installing. It should also be noted that if you did not install Fritz 10 and/or Chessbase 9 or earlier using the same procedure, UCI engines will not install. The Rybka engine is an exception, as it won't install under Vista at all at this time.

If you are updating it, do please post it. Thanks.

Lots of cool winboard and uci engines. But there is no Junior? Junior has the most beautiful style of any chess engine. was hoping it would be in this but I guess not. Thanks anyway.

first off, madman, you're a madman ... love it ... love chess engines and playing with them, seeing what they can do, matching them ... it's just always been a great fascination for me ever since the internet started making computer chess the reality many of us woodpushers dreamed of ... i've always found it most interesting that people will pour their blood, sweat, forks, and pins into developing a chess engine and then give it away for free ... i understand many of these are not free engines but many are ... it's truly amazing and thanks for the huge collection ...
secondly, ladywink, stop being such a helpless trollop and google or search for info yourself ... if you don't know how to use chess engines with various gui's, then go and look ffs ... don't post 'i'm just a helpless girl and can't do this' ... jesus christ, have some pride and stop thoroughly embarrassing and shitting on legendary suffragettes such as gertrude stein, alice b toklas, susan b anthony, all those chicks that hugh hefner bedded and pull yourself up by your own pantyhose ... there are A ZILLION computer chess sites that explain how to do this and more ... avail yourself of them and stop acting like a bimbo bending over in front of a guy so you don't have to change your own flat tire
thanks again madman :) you're rocking in the free world :)
