Function 2Ch (44) Get System Time
Reports the current system time of day.
On entry: AH 2Ch
Returns: CH Hour (0 - 23)
CL Minutes (0 - 59)
DH Seconds (0 - 59)
DL Hundredths of a second (0 - 99)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Function 2Ch reports the time of day as calculated from the ROM-BIOS
clock-tick count.
Notes: This Function has a complementary register format to
that of Function 2Dh, Set System Time.
On most systems, the hundreths field will only be
accurate to within 1/18.2 seconds rather than 1/100
seconds.
In some systems in which the real-time clock does
not track hundredths of a second, the value in DL
may be unpredictable.
