Instances vs Services

Hello again...

Oracle 8.1.7 on Win2k-Server (P4 with Java 1.3.1)

Booting the server starts the database service (automatic), but the instance is not open.
Shutting down the instance (Instance manger) does not stop the service.

I thought if the service was running then the instance was open, and if the service was stopped then the instance was shutdown.

What am I missing here? (Hopefully nothing too embarrassing <g>).

Thx,
