There are a couple fixes out there to make VESA modes work for DOS  
programs running within Windows (though I haven`t tried them myself).  
Search for winxpfix.zip or videoprt.zip

If your program can run from a floppy, perhaps you could add it to the  
bootable image. Use a program like winimage, or write the image to a  
diskette, copy your program to it, then create a new image from there.
