If you change the video resolution while running a Windows XP image such that
it uses fewer bytes of VRAM (either by using fewer bytes per pixel or by
lowering the resolution) then some window backgrounds will become corrupted.
This happens because the Windows XP Cirrus Logic driver assumes that VRAM is
initialized to 0xff whenever the video mode switches between VGA and SVGA.
This patch fixes this problem by resetting VRAM whenever a VGA/SVGA mode switch
occurs.
