If you simply double-click Crispy Doom to open it, it will automatically load Doom 2. You can click and drag which WAD you want to play and release it on top of Crispy Doom to get it to load that WAD, but I recommend you learn to use command lines; they are a lot simpler than it sounds.

Create a new text file. It will automatically be named "New Text Document.txt". Change the file to a .bat file by renaming it to "PLAY DOOM.bat". Right-click it and select Edit, and in the document, type "crispy-doom -iwad doom.wad". I prefer command lines because it allows me to just double-click on whichever WAD I want to play by doube-clicking the .bat file, pic related (I used brackets so the .bat files would show up first when sorting by name). More importantly, Crispy Doom doesn't work with Doom Mod Loader like other source ports do, so I use command lines to load mods. Check out these mods when running Crispy Doom, just copy-paste these and do an internet search and you'll find their descriptions so you can see if you want to play with them:
> pk_doom_sfx_20120224.wad
(original game sounds but now high-resolution, most noticeable with the shotgun and chaingun)
> vsmooth.wad
(adds more animation frames to your weapons, most noticeable with the chaingun, it actually spins now)
> D1SPFX19.wad
(various subtle sprite fixes)
These mods do not change the gameplay, and more importantly you can load any old demo with these mods loaded and they will not desync.
