   Thanks for that advice as I want to start with something working like a   
   "hello world", and then proceed from there with at least the first program   
   working. That's how tutorials are supposed to work anyways.   
      
   I guess that probably means I need to change the original question to ask   
   for an assembler that works with a modern operating system like Win10 x64.

   Does that mean there are no free assemblers (along with beginner tutorials)   
   that work native on a modern Win10 x64?
