Many old games won't run because of sound issues.  I don't know if it
will work with Quake but you can try VDMSound.  It is a great utililty
that emulates a sound blaster compatible dos card and then pipes it
out whatever sound card you actually have.

It was designed specially for NT, 2000 and XP and has worked
wonderfully on a lot of old games I have.

Do a search on google and it should come right up.

Good Luck
