Are you running hdbdos on y real Co3? If so, that is why your Coco 3 boots up at double speed.
You can use Vcc 1.4.3b and load hdbdos and start in double speed.

Why not just get it to double speed with a poke to $FFD9?  It may not be a
special option in VCC because it is available the 'ordinary' way.
