13.1.21 Function 1Ah - Get DCC Information
Description:
Sets or returns the display combination code (DCC). A DCC is used to indicate a combination of two monitors in the
system. For example, a common combination is VGA color with a co-resident monochrome display adapter. This func-
tion was not on the EGA and therefore has been used as a test for the existence of a VGA in the system.
