IMUL             Integer Multiply, Signed            Flags: O D I T S Z A P C
                                                            *       ? ? ? ? *
IMUL source

          Logic:    AX    . AL * source          ; if source is a byte
               or
                    DX:AX . AX * source          ; if source is a word

    IMUL performs signed multiplication. If source is a byte, IMUL
    multiplies source by AL, returning the product in AX. If source is a
    word, IMUL multiplies source by AX, returning the product in DX:AX.
    The Carry Flag and Overflow Flag are set if the upper half of the
    result (AH for a byte source, DX for a word source) contains any
    significant digits of the product, otherwise they are cleared.
