Converts a string representing a hexadecimal number into a value. The service also returns a pointer to the character in the string that marked the end of the hexadecimal number. This service is only valid during initialization. Uses Flags.

• Returns the value of the hexadecimal string in the EAX register, and the address of the terminating character in the EDX register. If the letter H terminates the number, EDX contains the address the character after the H.
