Is there any general list with CPU registers?

Example SI, DI, AX, BS, SS etc?
What do they mean?

Can anybody share a list? I really want to learn ASM
and by "learn" – I am talking about learn and understand
how ASM works and how CPU registers work etc.

Please add a lot of details that I can understand!

Thanks!

EDIT: I meant CPU and NOT "SPU" sorry for my bad spelling!

This is an OS development forum. Not an assembly forum.

You should ask your question here: http://board.flatassembler.net/

Hi,

Topic moved locked to prevent flamewar as suggested!

Have a look at (and order) these manuals for comprehensive info on IA32 / AMD64 processors. This is also an excellent guide to the general purpose registers.

Before making any more posts, please could you see the forum rules and don't post using colours.

Cheers,
Adam
