As for extratracting ChessV, it's a lot better to extract it using Windows XP's built-in .zip extractor. Basically, since I don't have Winzip, I just double click on the ChessV zip file, which will open up a window with a folder called 'ChessV'. I copy this folder (right click, copy) and paste it in the C:\ folder. This gives me a ChessV folder that I can play ChessV from.

Winzip has a way of destroying all of the subfolders that a .zip file has; this will break ChessV. The solution is simple: Don't use Winzip. WinXP's .zip extractor is simpler, better, and cheaper.
