I would like to install my chessmaster 10th ed so that i can start without the cd since I dont want to bring the CD.reader when travelling. Is this possible?

Yes, you just need to install all the patches. The last patch will update Chessmaster so that you won't need the CD.

You can find the patches in the Chessmaster 10th Edition Downloads.

Thanks it works! now I have something nice to do when travelling.
