Hello all, had MSX since 30 years, bought a MSXVR recently and wanted to learn (at last) assembly .
So since Compass 1.2 went freeware (MSX fair Nijmegen) I wanted to started with this very good (if not the best) assembler IDE.
But: some problems:
- I start compass.com in DOS2 mode, so typical no MSX BIOS and MSX BASIC interpreter present in memory map.
- I wrote some assembler code to use MSX BIOS routines, and ORG #9000
- When launching GO #9000 nothing happens
- Think I have to put the BIOS ROM again in page 0 and 1, no? How do I do this in Compass, I tried System - Memory - went to page 0 and 1 and changed to primary slot 0-0. But still doesn't work
Already learned that if DOS programm I can start at #0100 but only DOS BIOS, if I start at #4000 (ROM) I can include MSX BIOS, and if starting above #8000 I can use BASIC interpreter calls.
Any help much appreciated!
Fred.
