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,
Louis
