Title: how can I use CPUID
Post by: ecube on April 25, 2007, 12:47:04 AM

How can I use cpuid in a normal 32bit exe (meaning no .model tiny)? I tried using it directly with .486,.586.,686 and it won't compile. i tried using db 0FA2h(cpuid in hex and db = emit in this case) but won't compile with that either says initalized magnitude 2 large.

dd 0FA2h

Don't you mean " dw 0a20fh" ?
because " dd 0fa2h" becomes " db 0a2h,0fh,0,0"

E^cube,

What assembler are you using? I can get CPUID to assemble with MASM directly with no sweat. My first two lines are:

Code Select

.686
.model flat,stdcall

sinsi,

I just love that picture of your dog. Be careful no one dognaps it. Ratch
