To turn an option on/off or to select option settings (if any), press ENTER when the option is displayed. Pressing ENTER repeatedly will cycle through all choices for the displayed option. When your desired choice is displayed, either press ø or ù to go on to a different option, or press CLEAR to return to the Main Menu, and then MENU to return to normal game play. For details on each of these options, see the referenced section numbers. Note: When you reset the computer for a new game, most of your selected options are carried over to the next game. The only exception is Two Player Mode, which automati- cally returns to Player vs. Computer whenever you start a new game.

4.1 Two Player Mode

Options: player: P-C(Player vs. Computer) player: P-P(Player vs. Player)

Normally, the computer automatically answers with a countermove after you enter your move. If you activate player: P-P, however, you can enter any number of moves one by one, without allowing the computer to answer. This feature can be used in a number of interest- ing ways:

•Play through master games. Press ENTER to see what the computer would do in any position!

•Keep records of your own chess games. When a game is over, play to certain board positions to see how other moves or different strategies might have affected the outcome.

•Study opening lines by entering them manually.

•Play against a friend, with the computer acting as a referee. The computer will check all moves for legality and keep track of the time for both sides!

If you’re playing against another person and you want to see what the computer would do in your position, press ENTER to have the computer make your next move. After the computer has moved, Two Player Mode remains in effect, and you can continue your game. Note that this option automatically reverts to its default setting of Player vs.
