Auto startup of Workgroup server on NT

I'm looking for recommendations or ideas on the best way to engineer the automatic startup of our Oracle Workgroup server on an NT box.
Ideally, I want it to come up unattended as soon as the system has started (after a power failure for example, or remote reboot).
Ideas so far:
(1) There's a way of running NT apps as a service. We could hook in a routine
which does the startup. Could be a problem sequencing the startup with
the Oracle services though.
(2) As part of our daily batch processes, run routine that brings Oracle up
if necessary. Obviously, the server could be down for most of the day though.
These are pretty crappy solutions. Have I missed something? What would you suggest?
