I've created and routinely use a DOS image which uses the adapter specific
BIOS for my Ahead VGA Wizard (1 meg), which is an unsupported device.  The
tools that came with the wizard all work, as does vpic in 1024x768x256 mode.  
I didn't have to do anything special to make it work, so unfortunately 
I can't help you debug the problem you're having...

Best of luck!
