NASM assembly problems

[mrgrynch at comcast.net]

I have some more information in support of a problem with the build paths.

I moved the x86i folder to D\_temp, changed to the folder to D:\_temp\x86i\pentium4\sse2 and executed the following:

D:\_temp\x86i\pentium4\sse2>nasm -O9 -Xvc -f win32 -o "submul_1.obj" "submul_1.asm"

This worked.

Regards,
 -Dave
