I just Installed Oracle 11g on windows 7 64bit, and when I tried to ping using tnsping I faced this error TNS-12541: TNS:no listener.

So, I tried to start the listener using LSNRCTL> start also I faced this error:

TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
TNS-00530: Protocol adapter error

Set ORACLE_HOME and try starting the Listener again.
