Could not start the OracleMTSRecoveryService service on Local Computer.

Look at the registry value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oracle\OracleMTSRecoveryService\Protid_0\ and make sure that the host name matches your machine name.

If you have Windows 7 the registry path is

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ORACLE\OracleMTSRecoveryService\Protid_0
