VDMSound does not provide any extra video support than the original features from Windows 2000/XP itself. This means that you have to switch to full screeen when you need any graphic mode, because only text mode is supported in a window.

You could try SolVBE (take a look at this thread), a VESA driver/wrapper that can be used with VMDSound and allows you to run DOS-based graphic programs in a window.
