    You can use DBAssist to create a set of scripts to create your database. That also creates the service for you. Also, type oradim in command line to get a list of info for using oradim to create the service. Good luck! You will learn a lot by creating the db yourself!

    The password file should be in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory and named orapwsid
    I guess Oracle is looking at wrong password file.

    Oooops.. just realised we are talking windows here. The correct location for Windows is $ORACLE_HOME/database and name pwdsid.ora
    Make sure the service is running. And for known issues with password file go through this document.

    I don't know about others but I don't really like to do the things with GUIs.
