Can I use Fritz 13 or Deep Fritz 14 on Windows 8? Also, I don't have a DVD-ROM in my computer so where do I buy a downloaded version of fritz?

I run my Deep Fritz 14 on Windows 8. As far as a download version you might want to check with Chessbase.com which sells the product and answered my questions when I was looking to purchase the product (which is very good but requires a lot of memory to work effectively).

The program I bought does not include the Deep Fritz multiprocessor engine. I wish I knew where the best place to buy Deep Fritz would be (price-wise, I mean). You could try a site specifically dedicated to this brand of chess programs. If such a site doesn't exist, you could try any number of stores such as Chess House, TheChessStore, etc. I hope this has been helpful to you. Take care.--Mark

Theoretically you may have to buy newer versions though I am still using version 11 and it is still receiving updates so it really boils down to when they decide to stop updating the older versions. In my experience it seems like you will at least get about 4 years out of it, but probably more than that, most newer bluray discs I have seen don't use the newer versions of bluray copy protection anyways. Personally I'm going to upgrade to 14 because after using the trial I found it opens alot faster than 11 and seems to be a smoother experience. Also 11 doesn't work in win 8 media center, I don't blame power dvd though because win 8 wasn't out when I bought it and it worked fine in win 7.

Not sure about all the versions, but you can always install multiple virtual operation system under Win 8 for old games.They run on my Win 7 for sure.

Where did you by the sound drivers and how much?I finally got mine working but before Brian's post. He is correct' as best I can tell, and the problem rests with our computer software. I purchased a " DVD Decoder" download load on line from Roxio (I paid $20.98 but you can get it for a one time only down load for about $15 -if that is what you want). It now plays DVD movies and installs software which is what I wanted. I uninstalled the Hero program from my computer. Happy with the results but I only wish that I had been able to read Brian James post before I purchased the fix.

I installed Linux (Fedora 18), can't find the install CD at the moment but there is a printed sticker on the computer with the license key. The Windows install CD/DVD appeared to be something I could use on some other hardware if the need arose. I chunked the Windows stuff somewhere - sorry.

Thanks. Do you have a link to the software for ripping DVD's?If I want to rip a DVD, does the box indicate what file type the DVD is?

This is a full install dvd, but only for a clean drive. I'm guessing the one for $199 is an upgrade...I would suggest Win 8.1.

No. This version does not support mutiprocessors. I believe the one that does, is called Deep Fritz 13.

No, I have not been able to get any of the games to work on Windows 8 at all. They download but you are unable to play them. I have tried re-installing the game with no luck. DO NOT BUY IF YOU HAVE WINDOWS 8

I have version 7.53 which was released on October 18, 2013. I also have Windows 8 and they both work perfectly together. The developer, Anthony, is great to work with. Almost immediately, he will respond to any of your questions. His customer service is wonderful. Also, the software is so easy to use. I have been using it for years and love it!

I am running Puzzle Master 4 on my Windows 8 PC with no problems. I would expect the same results from the Puzzle Master series.

Well, it does not seem so easy for me. It keeps looking for some .dll file and can't find it and won't download. I went I-Go and got the drivers, along with a Word file from BB on a very convoluted way of installing the drivers, which doesn't seem to work either. Obviously, I am quite frustrated. Your help or anyone's help is appreciated.

3.0 is the best, it took me a long expensive while to find a new disk, 4.0 isn't bad, both by same authors. After that nothing communicates with past versions, and commands are horrible. Problem is, need to find compatibility mode to run, Bouderbund needs to get the ORIGINAL guys back together to write a new version of 3.!!!

I have windows 8.0/8.1 and I had no issues with it whatsoever. I upgraded to 8.1 little before I downloaded and played SC1-SCBW so I'd double check with a FAQ or something. But tbh I think you'll be fine.
