NC>Hi All!
NC>       I am trying to write a small subroutine for use with QuickBASIC 
hat
NC>will allow you to use the color text segment, B800h, for data storage when
NC>working in graphics mode.  It allows you to copy to and from arrays in
blocks
NC>of 1k.  CopyTo is to copy data to B800h, and CopyFrom is its compliment.
NC>Here's what I have so far:
NC>       On the line where I have:
NC>       mov     [es:bx], [di]
NC>       ...and
NC>       mov     [es:di], [bx]
NC>       ...it says that I cannot use the segment override.  Is there a way
NC>around that?
first of all, if you're using MASM or a compatible assembler, the correct way
of doing a segment override is like this:
        mov     es:[di], [bx]
second of all, why aren't you doing these as REP MOVSW instructions?
