What you need:
- Win 98 SE CD (obviously...)
- SoundBlaster PCI 128 drivers
- some of the unofficial Win98 Service Packs (e.g. http://exuberant.ms11.net/98sesp.html or - I guess Polish only - http://www.softmania.pl/program-1252-nieoficjalny_service_pack_plus_dla_windows_98_se.html)
- VMware Tools - windows.iso, take it from e.g. http://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/5.0/index.html
Remarks:
- do not use USB 2.0 - uncheck it in VM's settings. see http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1011734
- install SB PCI 128 drivers to have sound working
