I used a Win98 OS about 12 months ago. Some games needed to be configured for ems while some older ones didn't use ems.
Here's the entry for the config sys using ems:
rem DOS=SINGLE
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
DOS=HIGH,UMB
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE RAM
devicehigh=C:\BTCCDROM.SYS /D:OEMCD001
Without ems you add the word 'noems' after EMM386.EXE and delete 'RAM'
I remember in Legend Of Kyrandia if there wasn't enough DOS memory that the sound wouldnt work. To free up enough of that memory, you needed to load programs and drivers into high memory in config sig and autoexec.bat.
Here is ye olde autoexec.bat:
SET BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 H5 P330 T6
SET CTSYN=C:\WINDOWS
C:\PROGRA~1\CREATIVE\SBLIVE\DOSDRV\SBEINIT.COM
LH D:\MOUSE\MOUSE.EXE
