I just bought an AdSpeed.  I have a 1000, running 1.3
Here's my problem:  The 1000 doesn't boot up in 14 mhz mode.  When
I take the jumper off the AdSpeed and turn on the machine, it just sits
there with a gray screen, and doesn't even ask for a Kickstart disk or
anything.  Thats no problem, because it will boot with the jumper on.
But, its a pain in the butt to start up the adspeed program everytime
I turn on my machine and have to go up to the menu with the mouse
to put it in 14 mhz mode.  There is a sample piece of code in the manual,
which is C code with some assembler in it.  This piece of code states
that the assembly command   move #0,$b00000  will put the adspeed in 14 mhz
mode.  Well, I wrote a tiny little piece of assembly code which executes
this instruction, and then ends.  It looks like this:

 move #0,$b00000
 end

 It compiles fine (with a68k). When I run it, it does indeed change the speed
 of the processor, but it also crashes my machine.  Does anybody have any
 suggestions, or know of some code which is already done and known to work?
 I really just want a program that I can put in the startup-sequence that
 will put the adspeed into 14 mhz mode.

 Please send mail to [e-mail] or [e-mail].

 Thanks!
