Extended BIOS Functions
Extended BIOS services are available through the use of an extended
interrupt function BIOS call. The functions are placed in register AH.
The subfunctions are placed in register AL. You then invoke INT
10h. When the subfunction requires data input (for example, to set
the contrast), the data byte or word is generally passed in register BL
or BX. The output byte is returned in register AL. An unsuccessful
operation exits the function with the carry bit set.
