A good program to download for viewing pgn files is "WinBoard". You can go to http://www.tim-mann.org/xboard.html for downloading the program.
Thanks a lot! Something finally works on my slow computer!
Hey Trickster: Here's one you can try:
http://www.download.com/NetChess/3000-7491_4-10714926.html?tag=lst-0-2
It's from CNET Downloads which is a safe place to get downloads from. I'll go through my chess software library and see if I can find anything else. I've got chess softwar e going back to the 1980s and always have some good chess stuff sitting around. Try the above link and see if it works for your PC. How old is your PC? What OS are you using?
Hey it works!! Thanks hugh! MY Pc is like i think its a pentium 4 and about like maybe 3 years old. But for some reason some downloads over here don't work on the PC.
winboard is fine IMO.
You want a PGN viewer? Easy peasy! Go to chessbase.com and download Chessbase Light. I have CBLight 2009 and it's got a database of tens of thousands of master games. You can also open and view PGNs stored on your hard drive. Try it.
Try www.chessmicrobase.com for a web-based chess database program. Free for personal use.

There is a Windows store App reader called PGN Explorer, which is free.

There are some good free ones on SourceForge, particularly;
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pgn-chessbook/
and
https://sourceforge.net/projects/chessx/
I downloaded all of them from the downloads page over here , but for some reason they don't work on my pc! So does anyone know a site that has a good pgn download??????
