Many thanks for the driver Graham  - I bought a copy of Shredder 13 so as to be able to use it with a Certabo board. Hopefully someday there will be support for Certabo in Hiarcs and Chessbase progams too ...

Glad you like it! There is probably more hope for Hiarcs than Chessbase. Chessbase have a function in the DGT file to ensure that only the original DGT version is used, so unless Chessbase remove that check or DGT tells me how it works I won't be able to get my driver working there.

Hi Graham,

 

Thanks for your wonderful work! May I ask you a question? Somehow I have some strange behavior with my board, and I’m unable to use the board with my pc.

When I initialize the board, and this goes for LucasChess as well as Shredder, I get all sorts of ghost pieces on the board. See attached picture. I’m not able to initialize the board successfully. Any idea how I can solve this?

My board works flawless with the Certabo software.

Thanks,

Regards,

Reint.

 

Sorry about that. I came across it once before late last year and never got around to releasing the fix. I have now released version 2.5 on my web page that should correct the problem.

Thanks a lot Graham for your very quick response.

Works like a charm now!

Hi,

I am a new Certabo owner.

First of all, thanks to all users who support the board with additional software solutions. Special thanks to Graham for his numerous eBoard drivers.

Unfortunately I have an annoying problem with the board and the Graham DLL driver. In Lucas Chess and Shredder there is a 2-5 second delay in moves between the board and the software. I have no lag with my other eBoards and no lag with Certabo Software or Bearchess. (Win 11 Home 64bit / USB).

I am using the latest driver (3.1.1) and the latest chess software (Lucas 2.01c2).

Any ideas to solve this? 

Thanks and greetings from germany.
Tobias
