OS/2, unlike Windows, is actually an operating system.  You cannot exit it "to 
DOS" any more then you can exit DOS itself.   I missed the first part of this 
thread, but I run DOOM in DOS fullscreen and it runs as fast and as well as when I 
boot the machine up from my DOS partition and run it from there.  If you want to 
repost or E-mail me, I may be able to help you figure out what is going wrong.
