Oracle 9i does not use spfile on W2k?

Hello out there,
yesterday we installed Oracle 9i on a W2k Server. I created a spfile from the init.ora and it is used when I startup the database from SQL*Plus but it is not used when the database is started automatically after server reboot.
The documentation (Administrator's Guide for Windows) describes the use of oradim which can be used to make an instance startup automatically but it does not even mention the spfile. Oradim has a pfile parameter but none regarding spfile (at least not in the docs). Now the question is what can I do to make the automatic startup use the spfile instead of the init.ora?

Many thanks in advance,
Lothar
