Hi Kevin,

I'm not quite clear what "it" is. (like Bill Clinton :) )

Is Nasm quitting on you before it assembles your file? Or is your 
program exiting before you can see the result? The mention of 
"system("pause"); sounds like the latter(?). We can call system() from 
assembly, too, of course. Probably you want to wait for a keystroke(?). 
How you do that depends on your OS, or if you're linking against a C 
library, getc()...

I think we need more information about exactly what you did, and what 
happened (as opposed to what you wanted to happen).

Best,
Frank

ought to appear right away, this time. Sorry for the delay.)
