Ok, i think i fixed the things you said were wrong, but the problem left is
either getky isn't detecting keys (i'm using an emulator, easier but
probably less reliable than the calculator, its called Ti86emu.exe) or getky
is detecting but i'm not using it right. Also, i see the screen refresh, and
i think i'm using too many calls or jp's which may slow it down... help me
fix this so i can see what a working asm looks like.

Asm is attached...
