I think I better put this in the frequently asked questions list.
You need to change the line
$_dpmi = (off)
to
$_dpmi = (4096)
(or more) to run programs such as Doom that use DPMI
(I believe it's off by default because DPMI programs can theoretically do
naughty things (but probably not accidentally so it's only a problem if you
don't trust the program you're running))
