I guess you use a cheap card and the wavetable used is the Microsoft one,
resulting in the guitar sounding like an ocarina?

I remember a program by Roland which provided better -software- wavetable
synthesis, but start by checking out these pages:

Of course, you can always buy a more expensive sound card with better
wavetable synthesis by default.
