Oracle Service Problem

I HAVE LOADED ORACLE 8i ON WINDOWS XP. IT HAD LOADED SUCCESSFULLY AND
I HAD WORKED ON IT. BUT ON NEXT REBOOT WINDOWS IS NOT ABLE TO START
THE SERVICE CALLED OracleServiceORCL. WHEN I TRY TO START IT AGAIN IT
ENDS WITH AN ERROR:-

Quote:

Could not start the OracleServiceORCL service on Local Computer
Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control
request in a timely fashion

I HAD SEARCHED FOR THIS ERROR AND MICROSOFT RECOMMENDED LOADING OF
MICROSOFT .NET FRAMEWORK 1.1 SERVICE PACK 1. RUNNING THIS SERVICE PACK
ALSO DIDN'T HELP.

PLEASE HELP ME SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

Hi singh,

The problem can be solved easily.Just uninstall oracle and then install .net framework.Then again install oracle.It would surely work.

Thank you
