FASM has noting to do with unreal mode. Anyway even if you use "use64" the final result under unreal mode can be different from what you are probably expecting due to instruction encoding.

If you can do an "unreal" mode with 64 bit registers, I would love to know how to do that (without paging; through segmentation). I am not far enough along in my latest iteration to "try" to play with that part, but soon.

You can't switch to unreal mode which is based on 32 bit PM to RM mode and use long mode instructions at the same time. What you can do is switch under DOS to long mode - see Japeth example for his JWASM. So 64bit DOS Extender is possible. |

It's possible to use the 32-Bit Register (mov eax,ebx) in real and also in unreal mode. So you can use the Memory over 1MB and although flat graphic access.
I don't want to calculate addresses with the 64-Bit registers. with 32 bit I can reach 4GB. This is enough, more than enough. What I want is to use the 64-Bit-registers in my program to increase speed. Isn't it possible? |

You will also have to setup a paging table and various others things to get the whole system working in 64-bit mode. That is why I have been joking about unreal mode since unreal mode is not a long mode. Just because you tell the assembler to generate x64 opcodes does not mean the CPU will handle as you wish. This why - as revolution said - you need to setup all the structures long mode requires and when you switch back to rm or pm you loose it so it does not work like in pm when you switch it on, change selectors limits and switch back to rm with limits still valid. |

Most likely NO. 80386 brought 32-bit registers usable in 16-bit real mode too (with some flaws). AFAIK 64-bit registers like RAX are NOT usable outside of the 64-bit long mode. But you can use MMX and SSE registers and instructions. The best way to increase speed is a better algorithm by the way. So stop dreaming about 65'536-bit registers and reveal what you are trying to do and can't get fast enough.
