INT 0D - IRQ5 - FIXED DISK (PC,XT), LPT2 (AT), reserved (PS/2)
Notes: under DESQview, only the INT 15h vector and BASIC segment address (the
word at 0000h:0510h) may be assumed to be valid for the handler's
process
DOS 3.3+ revectors IRQ5 to a stack-switching routine unless STACKS=0
has been set in CONFIG.SYS. MS/PC-DOS use the IBM Interrupt Sharing
Protocol (see #02568) when hooking this IRQ
the Tandy 1000, 1000A, and 1000HD use IRQ2 for the hard disk; the
1000EX, HX, RLX, RLX-HD, RLX-B, RLX-HD-B use IRQ5 instead; the
1000RL, RL-HD, SL, SL/2, TL, TL/2, and TL/3 are jumper-selectable
for either IRQ2 or IRQ5 (default IRQ5); the 1000SX and TX are
DIP-switch selectable for IRQ2 or IRQ5 (default IRQ2); the RSX and
RSX-HD use IRQ14. Tandy systems which use IRQ2 for the hard disk
interrupt use IRQ5 for vertical retrace.
may be masked by setting bit 5 on I/O port 21h
