Idea Solution code:

                                                           name "vga"

; this program draws a square in vga mode.

org  100h

jmp code

; dimensions of the square:
; width:  50 pixels
; height: 50 pixels

w equ 50
h equ 50


; set video mode 13h - 320x200

code:   mov ah, 0
        mov al, 13h
        int 10h


; draw upper line:

    mov cx, 100+w  ; column
    mov dx, 20     ; row
    mov al, 0010     ; green
u1: mov ah, 0ch    ; put pixel
    int 10h
   
    dec cx
    cmp cx, 100
    jae u1

; draw bottom line:

    mov cx, 100+w  ; column
    mov dx, 20+h   ; row
    mov al, 0001     ; blue
u2: mov ah, 0ch    ; put pixel
    int 10h
   
    dec cx
    cmp cx, 100
    ja u2

; draw left line:

    mov cx, 100    ; column
    mov dx, 20+h   ; row
    mov al, 35      ; pink

; draw right line:

    mov cx, 100+w  ; column
    mov dx, 20+h   ; row
    mov al, 20    ; gray
u4: mov ah, 0ch    ; put pixel
    int 10h
   
    dec dx
    cmp dx, 20
    ja u4    


; pause the screen for dos compatibility:

;wait for keypress
