Choices. 1) Install W7 32-bit, 2)get a 64-bit version of turbo assembler. 3)You might also be able to run it in a virtual environment but then all the programs you create would likely only work in that environment too ... which would suck; why have W7 if you live in a virtual XP world.

TASM (Borlands Turbo Assembler) is a dead product, from what I remember, and generally not supported very well. Additiionally it is 16 bit.

So unless you are forced to use it for school I strongly suggest that you change over to MASM (Microsoft Macro Assembler). It is supported a lot better by the assembler community. There are changes with directives between TASM and MASM but it is easy to get over.
As for ml64.exe, from what I have read it has been crippled by MS, not sure why, just what I have read. Maybe they want everyone to use Visual Studio.

I am on my Win XP laptop at the moment, so I'll fire my other PC that runs Win 7 x64, I have masm on that as well. Been a while since I compiled anything on that as the old laptop is heaps more convenient.

Let me know if you have any problems or questions.

Hope this helps.

Yep works ok (masm32). I had forgotten about WOW64 (Windows on Windows, x86 emulator for 32 bit applicaions).
