INT 70 - IRQ8 - CMOS REAL-TIME CLOCK
Notes: this interrupt is called when the real-time clock chip generates an
alarm or periodic interrupt, among others. The periodic interrupt
occurs 1024 times per second, although many BIOSes turn it off in
the INT 70h handler unless in an event wait (see INT 15/AH=83h or
INT 15/AH=86h).
may be masked by setting bit 0 on I/O port A1h
