For audio add <code>-device AC97</code> to the parameters and use the [http://a320.the-cake-is-a-lie.com:8000/pgm/drv/sound/ac97/ac97_362.zip ac97_362.zip] driver. This driver provides Sound Blaster Pro 2.0 PCM emulation out of the box which is compatible and fully functional on QEMU.
 
The machine argument is set to pc-i440fx-2.4, this is to get around the PCI Bus bug that persists within QEMU, and the <code>VGA,vgamem_mb=64</code> parameter allocates 64MB of VRAM onto the generic VGA adapter QEMU provides to allow higher resolutions and color depths within 98SE.
