I came to know abt Art of Assembly(AoA) windows version (HLA)  But i found it bit (ahh ... much ) high level .

HLA was designed (I think) for university students who want to learn assembly code but do not want to move out of their high-level syntax. I think it is better to start off with MASM, especially if you think HLA is a bit too high-level. You can get MASM32 here:

However Art of Assembly is a very good book to read to learn assembly.

I had no problem switching from HLA to straight asm. I think it actually helped to learn with HLA first.

I too would recomend a study of AoA as it expalins how the processor works and lays a sold foundation for learning assembly.
