I have a turbo XT clone that has a maximum clock speed of 9.54 MHz.
Every time I boot up, I put it in turbo mode by pressing <alt><ctrl>f 
and it goes to turbo.  (I usually do this after it checks memory, though
it can be done anytime after that.)  What I would like to know if it is
possible to send this keystroke from software inside the autoexec.bat
instead of having to manually type it in every time.  I don't know the
internals of what happens when I do this, but I am assuming it sends
an interrupt.   Its called a Pepper-10 mainboard, so if you've heard
of it you may know more than I do.  Could somebody help me figure out
how to do it from a short program (preferable MS-C 5.1)?  I appreciate
it.
