2. cwsdpmi.exe
3. afd.exe

in C:/assembly.
4) Open notepad file and copy sample code in it and save it as test.asm in C:/assembly.

Sample code:

__________________________________________________________________________

[org 0x0100]

mov al,10

mov al,10h

mov bl,55h

mov cl,55

mov al,[ABh]

mov dl,0xCD

mov dh,0XAB

mov bx,53657

mov dx,[var1]

mov ax,-5

mov al,-6

mov ax,bx

mov dx,cx

;mov al,400

mov ax,0x4c00

int 21h

ABh: db 70

var1: dw 0xE5F6

___________________________________________________________________________
5) Now run Dosbox.

6) In dosbox window type MOUNT C C:/assembly . This will mount drive C and local directory
C:/assembly will be formed.
7) In dosbox window type C:

For Assembler and Debugger usage:

1) In dosbox window type nasm test.asm -o test.com. This will assemble the file test.asm and test.com
will be created.
2) Finally type afd test.com. Debugger will open and you can test your code there.

3. Strike F1 to execute code step by step.

4. If you don’t want to debug and execute .com file, you can type test.com in Dosbox window and press
