8i is depreciated, and was never certified with W2003. But if it works....

Are you sure it works? This error does occur when the services are not started.
Look for OracleServiceORCL, where ORCL is the SID name of your instance.

If you do not have such service, create one by using the oradim executable. Use oradim -help for an explanation of the options and parameters.
