They have a plugin called simcloth3. Download the one relevant to your version of max. Install it and then to use it you find it in the modifiers. Select a plane (for a bedsheet) apply the simcloth modifier, position the plane over the bed and click on calculate and you'll see its magic at work. Of course you'll need to tweak a few of the settings but you'll quickly get the hang of it.
