If you installed Oracle on the D: drive in the default location, you may need a command like this (all on a single line) to register the database with the Database Control, assuming that you manually created the database:

d:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\bin\emca.bat -config dbcontrol db - silent -DB_UNIQUE_NAME DB_SID_GOES_HERE -PORT LISTENER_TCPIP_PORT_GOES_HERE -EM_HOME d:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1 - LISTENER LISTENER_NAME_GOES_HERE -SERVICE_NAME

DB_SID_GOES_HERE.MY_DOMAIN -SYS_PWD MY_SECRET_SYS_PASSWORD_GOES_HERE -
SID DB_SID_GOES_HERE -ORACLE_HOME d:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1 -
DBSNMP_PWD DBSNMP_PASSWORD_GOES_HERE -HOST SERVER_NAME_GOES_HERE -

LISTENER_OH d:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1 -LOG_FILE d:\emConfig.log - SYSMAN_PWD SYSMAN_PASSWORD_GOES_HERE

Something like the above is automatically executed near the tail end of the database build when you use Oracle's DBCA to create the database.
