Chess game for Windows XP

stefano

I have noticed my daughters laptop (Windows 7) has Chess Titans as standard.
I have searched for Chess for Windows XP, and so many sites appear, but I am a little hesitant to download any of them, in case there's a virus or trojan.
Can someone suggest one that they have used? Please?

No idea how good it is but its on Sourceforge and an Open Source project:

If your not looking for eye candy then there is GNU Chess. It has only a very basic user interface, but WinBoard adds a basic 2D view.

A friend of mine uses Ubisoft Chessmaster 9000; I used it on a few occasions, and I must say, it is a very good program. I don't know if you can download it, but you can buy it from amazon of kelkoo. Try this link

Have fun and good luck with your choice
