problem with looping
Hello, the only strange thing that I see is that you jump to spot, even though it arrives there anyway, so at spot, this code will have only have run once. You probably mean something like: main PROC mov si,videoSeg ;set DS to video segment mov ds,si... -
capturing the screen contents
Hi, to place it back, you do exactly the same, set DS:SI to the source, ES:DI to the target, cx to the number of words, and then repsw. Since you want to place it back now, the source is the buffer, and the target is the screen. Wouter Dijkslag http://www.wody.demon.nl -

help with command line
Hello, Your code is a mess and doesn't work, so I wrote a program that seems to do what you want: CODE SEGMENT ASSUME CS:CODE,DS:CODE,ES:CODE ORG 0100H START: MOV SI,82h ; copy from here (DS) MOV DI,OFFSET NAME1 ; store it here (ES) CMP BYTE PTR [SI-2],0 ; Any characters on... -
Displaying a String
Hello, you are writing a DOS .COM file but those only consist of one segment. Move the data in the data segment below the last code, and remove the .data, and everything works fine. Wouter Dijkslag http://www.wody.demon.nl -
masm?
Hello, You are trying to write a DOS program in a Windows-only environment. Write a windows-program, and everything will work fine. With Masm32, one thing you have to pay attention to is to make your project in a directory below the masm32 directory (for instance C:\MASM32\HELLO). Also, read... -
Starting from the ground up
Hello, Try reading the Art of Assembly Language from http://webster.cs.ucr.edu/ I prefer the 16 bit edition, because I started a long time ago, but these days maybe the 32 bit edition may be better for beginners. Anyway, they are both there, enjoy. Wouter Dijkslag http://www.wody.demon.nl -
NEED HELP WITH ADDING 2 NUMBERS
Hello, What you are probably doing is something like add ax,bx and then add ax,'0' to make it a number. If ax contains 10, then you will get the character : So, what you have to do is make sure that AX contains less then 10 before adding the '0'. Wouter Dijkslag http://www.wody.demon.nl -

Segments with Nasm
Hello, You receive the no stack warning because this is a COM program, not an EXE program. A COM program has no stack-information in itself, it is set up by the operating-system (after which you can change it, if you want off course, but that is not the purpos). You have to use EXE2BIN or... -
windows xp and clipper/blinker??
Hello, Since Windows XP does not support DOS and DOS applications (although they may run), and Clipper and Clipper-compiled applications are DOS-programs, the official answer will always be that no, you can never make it run. If it does, it's a fluke, and you can be sure this will be fixed...- Wody

Segments with Nasm
Hello, Refer to section 5.2 of the documentation why it doesn't work. Specifically, you are using the BIN output format and not using the OBJ file format. When you use the BIN format, you would get something lke ;- hello.asm - (Nasm BIN DOS com file) --- cut here SECTION .text org 0x100... -
New to Assembly
Hello, Yes, art of assembly language is a good book, but books are personal. Some people can't understand one book but can read others. I never used the 32-bit version myself, since I believe it doesn't teach assembly language at all, but rather programming. The 16 bit is better, but this is my... -
Segments with Nasm
Hi, Nasmw is the same as nasm, only nasmw is a Windows program. Example that uses segments: ;- hello.asm - (DOS exe file) --- cut here SECTION CODE ..start: mov ax,DATA mov ds,ax mov ah,9 mov dx,text int 21h mov ax,4c00h...
