hi

i dont quite understand how segment overrides work..
does one have call ".byte 0x64" before EVERY SINGLE memory access..
Does that mean a instruction like  "rep
						stosl"
is impossible - because each of those stores should have been 
preceded by a "byte 0x64" bytecode -- requiring an explicit  ecx-type 
loop ???

sorry if this is a lame question.
thanks anyway..
