i have a bit of problem with rdtsc instruction, as far as i kow it should load edx and eax with current time stamp. But when i call it writes

Quote:

Current time: xx.xx.xx,xx
Enter new time:

thats quite odd

You made your own little program "time.asm" that assembles to "time.com" or "time.exe"? command.com has a built-in command, time, which will override your executable... try calling it "mytime" instead Smile
