Most chess programs enable you to change the level. Set it to a really easy level. 20 years ago - I never lost against my Sinclair Spectrum even on a hard level when it would take an hour to do a move. Today most chess programs beat me easily on even the middle levels. On the highest levels - unless you are a grand master (and I am no where near as good as that) - you are unlikely to be able to win. The days of chess programs not being able to recognise that a sacrifice is a good move etc are long over.
