Please bear with me, this is my first pure assembler program (and hopefully
my last!)

now I am running the commands as follows:

bin\ml /AT /coff /c clrvdisk.asm
link -subsystem:console /entry:START  -out:clrvdisk.com clrvdisk.obj

and receiving the folowing output

     Replace "dword" by "dword ptr" - NASM language is different (dumber),
than language of TASM/MASM. But "not dword ptr" is a 32-bit instruction, and
you should add .386 directive to enable compile 32-bit instructions in
16-bit code.
