code(Bascally edfed's )

When running on new computers(ones with Win10 installed) it reboots forever. Found an old computer and it works fine. Removing jmp gdt.code:.pmode also work. Why?

this code is disigned for legacy bios, are you sure your computer start in this mode?

and the first descriptor of gdt must be a null descriptor
