I want to move hardware text cursor without using BIOS, DOS interrupts and I'm using this code:

out 0x3D4,14h
out 0x3D5,00h
out 0x3D4,15h
out 0x3D5,00h

(has to move cursor to position (0,0))

How to make it compatible with FASM? Confused
Any suggestions are welcome...

you can use this code (I found it somewhere in my old projects). Call this proc with:
dl - cursor's x-position
dh - cursor's y-position

Code:
video_set_cursor_pos:
        mov     al,80
        mul     dh
        xor     dh,dh
        add     ax,dx
        mov     cx,ax
        mov     dx,0x03d4
        mov     al,0x0e
        out     dx,al
        inc     dx
        mov     al,ch
        out     dx,al
        mov     dx,0x3d4
        mov     al,0x0f
        out     dx,al
        inc     dx
        mov     al,cl
        out     dx,al
        ret    


regards
