Hi, I have a basic knowledge of c++ programming and have been reading up a lot on assembly but havn't written a program in it yet. I've mostly been trying to find out where to start for what my purposes are.

This is mostly for learning purposes. I want to create an extremely simple hardware limited 64 bit operating system. Basically something that will boot up, accept some input, and run a demo type program. I would be ok if it had to be 32 bit though, as this is really only for learning.

I have the books PC-Assembly by Paul Carter and programming from the ground up. I prefer the first one because it seems to be more aimed towards being operating system independent. Am I going in the right direction? Anybody have some advice on this? Help will be greatly appreciated.

64bit is only an extension, you HAVE TO know x86.

So does that mean I have to learn 16 bit then 32 bit then 64 bit in that order? No starting somewhere in between? Does anyone know of a good place to learn 16 bit assembly then so I can work my way up?
