1. The chess game started at $$4:17$$ PM and ended at $$5:02$$ PM.

2. Calculate the difference in time:
   - From $$4:17$$ to $$5:00$$ is $$60 - 17 = 43$$ minutes.
   - From $$5:00$$ to $$5:02$$ is an additional $$2$$ minutes.

3. Adding these together, the total duration is:
   $$
   43 \text{ minutes} + 2 \text{ minutes} = 45 \text{ minutes}
   $$

Thus, the game lasted $$\boxed{45}$$ minutes.
The game lasted 45 minutes.
