IIRC, the OIA should either start automagically or get started by lsnrctl dbsnmp_start
You might be able to find further error messages in dbsnmpc.log and dbsnmpw.log.
As long as your run as administrator on that box it should work. On initial start the OIA will create snmp_ro.ora and snmp_rw.ora and services.ora. The directory it tries to use might be write protected. It is not related to the preferred credentials issue.
