Oracle Database Discussions

I tried to reinstall oracle 11g on windows 2008 R2 and couldn't complete the installation as i am unable to start the oracle service. The system gives the following error message

Instance created.
DIM-00019: create service error
O/S-Error: (OS 1053) The service did not respond to the start or control request
in a timely fashion.

I try to manually create the service and it gives me the same error.

I also tried to start the service using the net start as follows

C:\Users\Administrator>net start oracleserviceprod
The service is not responding to the control function.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2186.

Having looked at the event viewer in windows, I noticed three different error messages as followsr


Application popup: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library : Runtime Error!

Program: c:\app\administrator\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\bin\ORACLE.EXE

R6034
An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

and then

A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the OracleServiceprod service to connect.

The OracleServiceprod service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.

Any help will be appreciated.
