OK - I decided to get back into ASM programming (I've been out of it since I made my SBIKE game in ASM that never did get released before it got deleted... BUMMER), and as a start I compiled (w/ TASM) the mouse program from ASMGuru (yes yes, I know, not the best tutorial). Well, it compiled fine but now won't run on VTI (which I am using right now as my calc is out of commision temporarily). It gives me the clssic "INVALID:" error message. Can anyone help?

Well, all I can say is "don't use vti for testing asm" if it works at all you probably won't get the result you'd get on a real calc.
Just compile it, type the hex codes into your calc and run it on your calc. |

| Don't dare you use it on the calc, break Ti's Flash Debugger calc and save money! |

| well, were u using the TI83 or 83+ emu? cause asmguru is for the 83... i will help, other than just critisizing the emus that actually DO work *hem, hem*... if it wont work on the emu, chances are that it wont work on the calc either! |

[my experience] Actually you've got them mixed, most assembly programs don't run at all on vti and if they do you get some random screen effect with 90% of the programs. If you type in the same program's hex codes into the actual calc it runs fine. Have a look at my thread in the old cirrus asm forum asking about a problem with vti, now know that I discovered a couple of months/weeks ago that the same program's hex codes typed into my calc worked fine. [/my experience] |

Not for me!  I think there's some 'special' compilier for the VTI, but I'm not sure, at least I know theres one for ION |

Hmm... That would explain why I almost always have trouble with my ASM development using VTI. My calc is currently out of service and miccing in action all in one, so I am probablly gonna splurge on a new one soon. As for experimental stuff, I'll try and keep it as simple as possible and throw it on an emulator first. Thanks for all the help!
