Do you want us to guess which assembler / processor / operating system you're dealing with?

it is x86 assembly, and for windows
and we write assembly by tasm

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't tasm a DOS assembler, and as such restricted to the archaic DOS interrupts for doing things?

Have a read of that, and make an effort at the first step (detecting a filename).
