Alas, I'm not very fluent in inline assembly, but if I'm not mistaken
you've not got everything else either.

The lines "mov al,v
           inc al
           mov v,al" says load v with the value of register al,
increment al load register al with v. Don't you want it the other way
around?

In a similar vein, "mov ax,0x3" loads 0x3 with the value of ax. I
don't know if 0x3 means literal 0x3 or the address 0x3, but either way
it won't work (you can't change the value 3 or you probably don't want
to write at address 3).


Right,
