- OS/2 has it's own setup to control how it talks to video adapters, and once you have
- that set up, you will not need the VMODE command. I don't know if you can do this
- from real DOS, as it's normally done from a VDM, but worth a shot. Use vmode to set
- your video cards refresh rate ... for all your video modes. Then go into \OS2 and
- type SVGA ON. This will create a configuration file (forget what it's called) with
- all your video information. After that, you shouldn't have any trouble.

- Hope this helps,
