    VMware player 3.0.1 crap emulation sound

    I'm trying to use Windows 95 and 98 first edition on Vmware player v3.0.1 and the sound emulator is es1371 (ensoniq pci sound blaster) rather than sb16 or sb32. The es1371 drivers are meant for the second edition. And the es1371 or the es1370 drivers will not install without a BSOD. The SB16 or 32bit compatible drivers will not work at all off the win98 disc in VMware. When it comes to Virtual pc 2007 the disc drivers work too good. I do have both 2007 and VMware player installed. The physical sound card is an Audigy 2 ZS pro.

    For default the .VMX file goes:

    sound.present = "TRUE"
    sound.fileName = "-1"
    sound.autodetect = "TRUE"
    svga.autodetect = "TRUE"
    sound.virtualDev = "es1371"

    Then I tried:

    sound.present = "TRUE"
    sound.fileName = "-1"
    sound.autodetect = "TRUE"
    svga.autodetect = "TRUE"
    sound.virtualDev = "sb16"

    Then:

    sound.present = "TRUE"
    sound.fileName = "-1"
    sound.autodetect = "TRUE"
    svga.autodetect = "TRUE"
    sound.virtualDev = "sb32"

    That did nothing. Does anyone know where to get good Ensoniq drivers?
    Also does anyone know how to get USB enabled in Microsoft Virtual PC 2007?

    I looks like I'm gonna need an Ensoniq driver for Windows 3.1 also. Why did they decide on Ensoniq? Also I forgot to say that the host system is windows XP.
