@pooja : As i'm not much aware of assembly


programming i've just tested a small program on
addition of 2 numbers and it worked perfectly for
me!
so i suppose you have to change your cv
command!
I Suggest you to Try below commands :
masm lename.asm
link lename.obj
debug lename.exe
then type "t" and Enter for Memory Windows !
U can also use "u" , "g" ,"e" etc !
Hope this helps You for cv is illegal command
error! :)

should I write MOUNT C C:\8086 every time I want to


program ?

Reply

Replies

JOPHIN JOY

@Tonton : Ya you gotta do that each time you


wanna execute a program. Bcoz we are
implementing MASM with the help of DOSBOX so
you have to mount it on that then only you can use
it!

Just a tip:

One can also go to C:\ folder and nd the dosbox


folder(doing this will help you not to write the
mount command everytime you want to
program@Tonton :)) ). There nd the Dosbox
options open it and at the bottom enter this
command ,save and exit :

mount c c:\8086

Bro it has been tested on Win 8 and 8.1 also and it


works perfectly ne.
Just follow the Video there is nothing in installing
masm. You need to install DOSBOX and then
emulate MASM over it. See the Video for detailed
Instructions.
