VESA is a dirty word I haven't heard in a while

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, people played games in DOS because they actually ran better than in Windows back then. Most games required that your video card support VESA. VESA is a universal DOS video driver.

Anyway, the best way to get VESA support is the Scitech Display Doctor which is a univeral VESA driver: http://www.scitechsoft.com/down_sdd_dos.html
