I have DOSBox installed and I am trying to use MASM from DOSBox but I failed on doing that. DOSBox keeps printing a the follwoing message:

"cannot run this program in dos mode"

I tried this on both, MAC and Ubuntu versions of DOSBox.

  • MASM **version 11** : ( http://www.masm32.com/installation.htm ) `The MASM32 SDK is designed to install on Windows operating system versions from WIN2000 upwards.` – Hennes Oct 02 '12 at 22:30

To use MASM in DOSBox you need a DOS version of MASM. It is very old one.

The version you are trying to use is for Windows and supposed to be used as console i386 application.

  • Searching for the latest MSDOS version of MASM 5.10 (including a 16 bit linker) using the search term of "masm51.zip" i found this page: http://microprocessados.lesc.ufc.br/downloads/Laboratorio/masm51.zip –  Dec 14 '13 at 11:29
