Thanks for the correction Paul. That's what I had initialy but, for some stupid unknown reason, I shifted the "push edi" to the wrong place when I posted the code. :red

Both forms should generally execute in about the same number of cycles. AFAIK the effective address calculations affected the cycle counts only for the very early processors

Thanks for the confirmation. - mostly all the code i've seen usually uses the registers, so I got the impression that, that usage was mainly because of a speed factor, although..I didn't understand why it would be so.
