Regarding VMware and VirtualBox, AFAIK you can only get some very basic MIDI support (MPU-401) if you install Windows 9x and run DOS stuff through that (at least games that do run with that configuration).

@maximus:thanks i'll try those asap @jorpho:yes,its on autoexec,its LH mscdex.exe /D:MSCD001,and indeed it works. i have two lines,because,for some reasons,the windows's cd driver recognize the first line,while if i boot in pure dos,only the second line is used to detect the cd rom driver.
