Hi, I have a problem with MASM v3.00 that a friend lent me
The following is an excerpt from the listing output..
(I'm new to 8088 assembly, so if I'm doing something silly, just tell me)


 
 Addr  Machine Code                       Instruction
 
 004E  A2 0381 R	 	         MOV   W_FLAG,AL
 0051  FF 26 0382 R	 	         JMP   [WAITING]
 	 	 	 	 
 	 	 	 	MNLOOP:
 E r r o r   ---	6:Phase error between passes    
 004F  AC	 	 	        LODSB         
 0050  3C 1F	 	 	         CMP   AL,CTRL

I can see that the indirect jump should be a four byte instr,
 but the LODSB Is placed at 4F.   WHY DOES IT DO THIS?????

Thanx in advance for your help
