If you could post your table schema (SHOW CREATE TABLE table_name) and then give an example of the query that is slow on InnoDB that would help us give a better analysis. Right now it sounds like something is wrong, InnoDB is likely to be slightly slower than MyISAM because of transaction overhead and row level locking for simple selects. But, it should not be 'very very slow' if MyISAM is 'very very fast' as it sounds like you are saying.
