Every time I've run DOOM on WinXP, the screen display rotates 90
degrees to the right (what was at the top of the screen is now on the
right, and so on).

How do I fix this bug?

That's your video card drivers having non-standard settings (e.g. having
rotation enabled on desktop, or in-game.)

Try a source-port such as prBoom, ZDoom, or JDoom - they are capable of
running in windowed mode without problem.
