I also had trouble with getting Doom (Doom II) to run on Win95.  The
two problems were that on startup the joystick init would click over
the second "lower right and push button" (which would start Doom in
fast motion) and that the SFX sounds would not work.  The joystick
problem was eliminated by setting the properties of the MS-DOS
shortcut icon to "full screen",  and the SFX sound problem was
eliminated by overriding the Win95 default (drivers) of IRQ 10 for the
SoundCard,  as Doom II would not recognize anything that high.  

Next will be creating an interesting icon.

Everything runs great now!
