Excellent game - But defective CD

I am an advanced chess player. But I was not able to win even a single game. The chess engine is too advanced and really great. It even advises you on your bad moves and allows you to take back the move, but it was still not possible for me to win a single game.
Now the downside. The CD played well for three days. After that it will ask you to "refuel" the game by placing the original CD on your CD drive. I have three different drives on my computer but I was not able to refuel the game on any of them. Hence I had to return the CD and I am still awaiting the replacement disc from the company

Extreme Chess will not run. First the Launcher crashes the system, then when manually installed, the program asks for the disk to be inserted. The disk IS inserted, but it says "that is not the Extreme Chess Disk". Tried on 4 different computers, 3 with XP, and one with 98. Same thing.
This 20 dollar program is a coaster.
If I hadn't bought it months ago, and just got around to installing, I'd ask for my money back.

I find the programme difficult to use and not very reliable.
Will have to call for assistance.
