You need to use the older version <<Release version pre-beta 2008.03.23>>
I experienced the same problem with the latest VBEMP <<pre-beta 2008.10.21>>.

Try to ask BW directly he would explain it. I didn't try to run VESA app under VBEMP (I use it only under WNT4)

DOS gives me freedom to unlimited HW access.

Here's reply from BW:

Due to bugs in fullscreen mode (with some DOS progams also) I make a decision to hook and disable VESA BIOS calls in latest VBEMP driver [2008.10.21]. Hope it helps.
If any one wish to get "unlocked" version feel free to contact me.

I tried BW's unlocked driver yesterday and it worked fine. I tested my DJGPP VESA prog. and it found VBE as under plain DOS. When switching back to windows it correctly redraw - no artefact remains. I think it would work for most dos progs, try yourself :)
