I've done it I think

Here are some of my ideas: Bishop on the a5-d8 diagonal to cut off the black king, white king gains opposition and pushes through, white bishop able to come back to e1 while king is on b6 so that Ka5 can be met with Kc5. A game I played managing this (I'm white, fritz 8 is black) 1. Bd4 Ka6 2. Kb2 Ka5 3. Kb3 Ka6 4. Bf6 Kb6 5. Bd8+ Kb7 6. Kc2 Kc6 7. Kd3 Kc5 8. Bh4 Kb6 9. Be1 Kb7 10. Kd4 Kc6 11. Be2 Kd6 12. Bd3 Kc6 13. Ke5 Kb7 14. Kd5 Kc7 15. Kc5 Kb7 16. Bf4 Kc8 17. Kb6 Kd8 18. Bd6 Kc8 19. Kc6 Kd8 20. Kb7 Kd7 21. Bxb4 and fritz resigned. It's a very long solution and none of black's moves are forced, so if anyone sees a different black move, I'll give you what I would have played against that, but I think this wins :)
