in the actual assemble file the first 3 lines are this

.586
.mmx
.xmm

You would need to use a newer version of ml.

why would it not be in the new download on hutchs site

microsoft <r> macro assembler version 6.14.8444

assemblying: c:\masm32\engine.asm
undifined symbol : mm0......

MM0 should work.  The default wants uppercase.

You can always:

mm0 TEXTEQU MM0

thnx that did the trick..   :cheekygreen:

If you use 6.15, it would assemble the lowercase properly. That's why I said use a newer verison.

Personally mine is

C:\masm32\bin>ml
Microsoft (R) Macro Assembler Version 7.00.9466

I think this information has been posted previously, but I can't find the post.

At least for versions 6.14, 6.15, and 7.00, whether or not MASM will accept lower case for the MMX/XMM register names depends on the position of the .MMX or .XMM directives relative to the OPTION CASEMAP directive. If the .MMX or .XMM directives follow the OPTION CASEMAP directive, then lower case will be accepted.
