Error when Installing R12 on Windows XP SP3

Question

Hi I am trying to install EBS R12 on WindXP SP3 and followed all the steps mentioned. I go the following error:
Step 2 of 5
RW-50004: Error code received when running external process. Check log file for details. Running Database Install Driver for VIS instance.
I looked at the log files under
C:\oracle\VIS\db\tech_st\10.2.0\log\ap702app\client
C:\oracle\VIS\db\tech_st\10.2.0\log\ap735wgs\client
C:\oracle\VIS\db\tech_st\10.2.0\log\personal\client
and all the log files contain the following
OCROSD5444utgdv:1:cold not open registery key SOFTWARE\oracle\ocr os error The system could not find the environment option that was entered
OCRRAW5444proprinit: Could not open raw device
default5444a_init:7!: Backend init unsuccessful: 33
CSSCLNT5444clsssinit: error(33) in OCR initialization
Can someone tell me what other log files do I need to look and the location of the logs. As I am not able to install I tried couple of times but everytime it get stuck at Step 2 of 5.
I followed all the steps as listed in the following thread:

Hi,
Thanks it worked this time I gues was an issue with username having spaces. I know we need to start DB Services first when starting up and Shut Down AS Services first and then DB.
Under services I see the following services related to oracle now in which order should I be starting and shutting down these services. On shut down of my laptop I want to shut the services first so in which order should I do and on startup in which order to start the services. Following services I see in the windows services.
Oracle Fulfillment Server VIS_maper      ----------------------->                                                       Automatic
Oracle Process Manager for VIS_maper              ----------------------->                       Started      ----------------------->   Automatic
OracleConcMgrVIS_maper          ----------------------->               Automatic
OracleJobSchedulerVIS          ----------------------->               Disabled
OracleServiceVIS                    ----------------------->     Started     ----------------------->Automatic
OracleVIS_db102_RDBMSTNSListenerVIS     ----------------------->          Started     ----------------------->Automatic
OracleVIS_maper_TOOLSASControl          ----------------------->          Manual
OracleVIS_maper_TOOLSProcessManager          ----------------------->          Manual
OracleVIS_maper_TOOLSTNSListnerAPPS_VIS     ----------------------->     Started     ----------------------->Automatic
Oracle-VIS_maper_WEBOHProcessManager          ----------------------->          Manual
As I want to make all of them manual and restart/shutdown when needed.
If I want to start/stop these services from commandline what scripts do I need to execute and there location as I want to a batch file to start/stop all the services.
Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks
