which assembler to use?...

[benmartin101]

there are so many and so far, I can't find one that could compile these codes:

.model small
.stack
.data
message   db "Hello world, I'm learning Assembly !!!", "$"

.code

main   proc
   mov   ax,seg message
   mov   ds,ax

   mov   ah,09
   lea   dx,message
   int   21h

   mov   ax,4c00h
   int   21h
main   endp
end main

i tried it with masm32 and it won't compile. Any suggestion for assemblers that would compile this code, or how to make this compile in masm32. I would be fine with 16-bit types. I just wanna learn the basics.

What error message(s) are you getting?

That's because the tutorial you're using uses 8086 encoding:

Please note, that I explain 8086 assembly coding. That means NO 32-bit registers and instructions and NO protected-, real- and virtual 86 mode for now.

He uses TASM 3.2 throughout the tutorial:

I used tasm32 with the code above, and still no success. I'm guessing it may be my command line:

tasm32 hello.asm

it gives me 24 errors. Could someone give me the exact command lines to make this code run and actually output "hello world".
