Wendy,
You don't say where you are trying to connect from, but presumably it is SQL*Plus.
Try opening a Server Manager session; START -> RUN -> CMD -> SVRMGR23 or SVRMGR30 depending upon Oracle7 or Oracle8.
Then connect internal/password followed by STARTUP.
C:\ > SVRMGR23
SVRMGRL> connect internal
Password: {password}
Connected.
SVRMGRL> STARTUP
This will start the database up, or give you some form of error message that
should guide you in the correct direction. I am assuming that there is only
one Oracle database on this machine, otherwise setup the Oracle Environment
before running svrmgr23.
Hope this helps
Andrew
