That error message may be related to the environment variables that you created. If one of the environment variables is over-riding a setting that is in the registry, one of the Oracle related services may fail to start. This can also be a result of creating or editing the entries in the registry to invalid or conflicting values. Check to see which Oracle related services are started. Also check the alert logs for information.

Note: the error message that you are reporting is very generic. You may see the same error message if you were using a serial mouse on NT and decide instead to use a PS/2 mouse. The Windows event viewer will give you a better idea of the actual error.
