There is a GEL file in Starterware that sets up the clocks. The GEL file is 
very similar to C programming and I converted ti to a C file that setup 
everything for my application. I wish I had access to my desktop so I could 
send you my project. I also converted that GEL file to a Lauterbach Practice 
script so that I could debug with a Lauterbach JTAG debugger. 

Regards,
John
