I tried allocating some kbytes for stack but with no success.

Nope. All variables are initialized before.

Nope. I use there _only_ eax, ebx, ecx, edx, ds, es, esi, edi.

Maybe I should rewrite that stuff in gnu assembler. Tell me then,
when can I find a suitable TXT of HTML FAQ about GNU assembler?
(for the beginners)

Thanx, PK.
