Are you quite sure that you have Win98SE, and not the original Win98?
Right-click My Computer, click Properties General tab.
Does it say Second Edition, and does the version number end with .2222A?

I just downloaded Windows Media Player 9.0 for Win98 SE.
When I tried to open the file, a message popped up that
said this player was for Win98 SE, Win ME, 2000, and XP
only. I have Windows 98SE. Why is it not being recognized
by this software?
