        AH = 87h
        CX = number of words to copy (max 8000h)
        ES:SI -> global descriptor table
Return: CF set on error
        CF clear if successful
        AH = status
            00h source copied into destination
            01h parity error
            02h interrupt error
            03h address line 20 gating failed
            80h invalid command (PC,PCjr)
