i have a 386dx25 with 5 meg of ram and doom works just fine, although it
is almost painfully slow unless i shrink the screen way down.  i prefer
to play it on my friend's 486dx266.  :)  it is much cooler.
anyway, does your error occur like halfway through the startup screen?
does it say:
<something about initializing something>.....
and then it suddenly stops and says something about an unexpected interrupt?
this used to happen to me.  all i could do was try running it again until it
worked.  even booting without loading anything into memory wouldn't work.
v. 1.1 has not given my this error, though.  i think it has something to
do with memory, though.  try just running it over and over a few times.  
maybe it'll work.  or so a completely clean boot.  no autoexec or config
or anything.  it needs like exactly 4 meg or something.  i've got a friend
with a 486dx33 with exactly 4 meg and he has to load from a boot disk.
mine works without a boot disk.  hope this gives you some leads.
