I have reloaded the OEM & Components. I deleted the orcl instance and created a new orcl instance. I went through the Net 8 Configuration processes. But When I try to create the repository, it gives me that same error :

ORA-00604 Error occured at recursive SQL Level 1
ORA-02248 Invalid Option for Alter Session

So It will not LET me create A Repository.

If I look in "Services" the OEM is "stopping" & I cannot start either the HTTP or the Management Server components... I get this message:

"Could not start the OracleOraHOme817Management Server on Local Computer. The service did not return an error. This could be an internal Windows error or an internal service error....

The Oracle Agent is started... I am logging into the machine with Administrator privileges... ???
