[Jurgen V. G. <jur...@st...>]

Sorry, I tried this but the system still reboots. This is getting a very
anoying problem because I can't test the work I have done for reactos
(ole32). Has anybody got freeloader, and would that work loading reactos
on my system. The thing is I don't know enough assembler to solve the
problem on my own. Hoping for a quick solution.

Try to insert a couple of NOP between the Label declaration and the jump
instruction. If i remember well, there a little bug in NASM about
this... (unsure, but no relationship with the prefetch anyway).
