- How about setting up a Win-OS/2 real mode session that uses the VGA
- driver? You still have VGA on your system -- nothing is preventing
- you from creating one session that does not use XGA.

- replace the driver file when needed or replace SYSTEM.INI. (I hope
- that brief description is enough to get you thinking.)
