- I've run into a bit of a problem while attempting to debug a TSR using
- TD386. The debugger has responded to me with messages such as:
-
- "Exception xx, Error Code 0",
-
- with xx being 6 and 13 at various times.
-
- According to the Turbo Debugger manual, Exceptions are due to illegal
- opcodes, and they are described in the "Intel Processor
- Documentation".
-
- The program is written in assembler code, and assembled using TASM.
-
- My questions:
- 1) what do these codes mean?
- 2) what documentation is being referred to by "Intel Processor
- Documentation"?
- 3) Why would TASM output something that may be an illegal
- opcode?
-
- Any assistance would be appreciated. Please respond by e-mail, and
- I'll summarize if needed...(of course, apologies if any of these are
- FAQs).
