Doesn't look good I'm afraid
Do you get an error message when installing the drivers or, after installation, does the phone fail to connect at all? Or throw up an error whilst trying to connect?
The interesting thing is that according to SE, the drivers are compatible with Windows ME but not 98. Since ME is basically just a tarted-up version of 98, it's surprising that the drivers aren't compatible. Sure, ME added some extra functionality at the system level too but it's surprising non the less.
I'm not aware of any patches or rogue drivers but you could always try
http://www.driverguide.com for a 98 compatible driver. You have to sign up first, which is a bit of a pain, but it's a pretty useful site

To have the SonyEricsson PC suite work with Win98 the latest Win98 COM driver needs to be installed. It is called Dcom98.
See here for download.

But isn't it a bit revolutionary for the comp??
