I'm dealing with the graphics thing right now. I have this game that I'm trying to run in VESA mode (the low-res graphics suck), but DosBOX doesn't have a particular graphics card.

As far as i know DOSBOX emulates an IBM compatible DOS computer. The graphics card has a BIOS, like the computer itself. This graphic card BIOS is mirrored on a specific address in computers memory. Your DOSBOX should emulate such a graphics BIOS also, maybe the emulated graphics BIOS is not f.ex. VESA 2.0 compatible. The VESA driver I named emulates a vesa compatible graphics BIOS.
You could give it a try. You will then be running an emulated graphics BIOS on an emulator. More than a system crash can't happen to you.
