It is a mistaken belief that playing chess is a god-gifted art and barring reaching an ordinary ‘cognizable standard’ you cannot improve. Here ‘cognizable standard’ means you are reaching to the standard which makes you only recognize the good and bad points of the game but without any ability to develop your game accordingly. No doubt, it is a game of superior intelligence. The alertness of the mind, capacity to contemplate on and select the right future are some basic requirements of this brainy game. Of course, you cannot cultivate talent only with the help of your labor but if you have a little of it you can surely bone it. Do not forget the age-old maxim that genius is five percents inspiration and ninety-nine percents perspiration. Moreover, hardly any human being is totally devoid of the element of talent. Only when we fail to perspire for making it develop that we lag behind the others who do. This is what we purpose to do with this article.

There are times when in the absence of the right kind of guidance our talents wither. Since they don’t know how to properly irrigate and fertilize this plant of talent, this get withered away. Remember that like any other discipline, chess also needs your unwaivering devotion. The young boys normally don’t know how to utilize their free time, especially those who have the potentials. Follow the guidelines given ahead and become a good chess player.

1. Read Chess-books and Magazines

After playing some games, read the book carefully. Play more games and the read the book. Each time you absorb some points that seemed previously obscure or did not grip you.
The way you improve most is not by playing opponents, but by playing over well-annotated games. Cover one side’s move usually the winner’s) and think out of each move before looking.
If you are eager to improve your play rapidly, write down the moves of all your games, not only the competitive one (in which recording is compulsory). It is best to write them in chess scorebooks, as loose score-sheets are easily lost. Afterwards, play each game and jot down critical comments. This how the grandmaster developed his skill in chess and became proficient in a short time without any coaching. It is surprising how much the game became clearer when you see every position a second time, in the light of what happened first time. You become your own tutor. If, after writing your comments you submit some of your games and your comments to a competent coach or top player for assessment for a suitable fee will improve more rapidly still.

I have the white MacBook and I have Windows Vista Home Basic on it via Boot Camp. I have Lego Chess witch is a old Windows computer game. The game says that it will only work on a Windows 95 or 98 computer. I also have some other old computer games that only work on Windows 98 or any older version of Windows and some of them work on my Windows Vista Home Basic.

When I install the Chess game on my Windows Vista part of my MacBook and then I try to run the game the computer tells me to put the CD for the game into the computer and the CD is all ready in the computer. Can someone please tell me if there is a way to make the game work on my Vista part of my MacBook?

Thanks to anyone that can help me out

PS, If there is anything out there that I can get to make my game work I don’t want to have to pay for it.

Ok, now I think this is just a glitch in the computer chess game that I have but I need clarification so that I can be sure.

The computer moved a pawn forward three spaces, so it is one square onto my side of the board. I moved one of my pawns up two from start, using the double manuever a pawn has at the starting line. Well somehow the computer moved diagonally as if I only moved it ONE space forward, and it took my piece as well. Is this just some bizarre glitch in the game or is it possible to do a diagonal attack on a pawn that is BESIDE you when it moves two spaces forward?

In other words, my pawn moved forward two, his was moved three, I was right next to his pawn but he still moved diagonally and took my piece as though I only moved forward one.

Hi
I have a number of questions about improving my chess skills.
1. Is there a computer chess game that provides move analysis after the game or during it? With hints and everything?
2. I couldn’t find a particularly useful website offering good chess lessons. The available tutorials aren’t much useful since in order for them to work the pieces must be at certain places otherwise you can’t pull that cool move. Any really cool website?
3. What’s the best way to improve my chess in general? Reading lessons? Playing against computer? Playing against human players?
Thanks a lot
