I think that was me 2 years ago. I'll have to make a boot floppy and try this new version.

Instead of CLI & STI you might try PUSHF CLI code_here POPF
Other automatic interrupts might have the INTs turned off
and a CLI STI proc will turn the INTs on in the middle of that auto INT ?
PUSHFW saves the interrupt state
CLI turns off the ints for your proc
POPFW restores the flags word including the INT state.

I hacked a Sound card .exe & found it to be used by lots of pro's too.

I hope that helps somewhat.
