My Hello World don't boot (i use "qemu -kernel Kernel.bin")

You are assuming to be in protected mode, but have you already a bootloader? Otherwise you need to set up the protected mode from the real one

Tu stai assumendo di essere in modalità protetta, ma hai già un bootloader? Altrimenti devi settare la modalità protetta da quella reale

[Combuster]

The -kernel option is intended for a linux kernel and generally does not do what you expect (which as far as forum history goes, includes not doing what the documentation says), so try to avoid it. And unless you want to stick with qemu forever, you'll have to learn to live without it at some point anyway.

I do not see Multiboot header anywhere in your code.

Qemu's -kernel switch somewhat works with Multiboot compliant kernels, but it's not very reliable. Assuming you use recent enough Qemu, it should work with something this simple, however. But without Multiboot header it does $deity (and Qemu devs) knows what.

I'd suggest to switch to more stable bootloader, GRUB for example.

And when you'll finally get it to boot, it will print only single character 'd' in top-left corner of your screen. But I'll leave it up to you to figure out what's wrong with printing routines.

I wrote the multiboot header in Loader.asm and now go with qemu (-kernel option) or my grub (add this):
