There isnt a seperate assembler - just a few settings
The problem is that you need a 16bit linker...there are versions on the net somewhere
gah, now im gonna have to dig throo my box of 5 1/4" floppies for an old copy of Turbo C (it has a stand alone assembler).
Until you can build a working general purpose reprogrammable computer out of basic components from radio shack, you are not fit to call yourself a programmer in my presence. This is cwhizard, signing off.
What exactly do you want to do? For small stuff, a single-segment COM file should be enough. And if you use NASM (Netwide Assembler) instead of MASM, you can output the COM directly and you don't even need a linker. Although I believe MASM comes with one...
MASM is ancient. I'd suggest going with something that is still under active development (e.g. NASM)
