What do you get if you run "select * from v$instance" from the 'other' window, 
the one where you know it is already running?

  Are they both running under the same ORACLE_HOME?

    I am running multiple instances on test machine, Windows, 9ir2.

    Both have SGA of 100m and machine memory is 512 mb.

    I am getting the following error.

    C:\DOCUME~1\CMAJMU~1>set ORACLE_SID=chirep

    C:\DOCUME~1\CMAJMU~1>sqlplus /nolog

    SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production on Tue Nov 1 10:39:26 2005

    SQL> conn / as sysdba
    Connected to an idle instance.

    But the same instance is up and running in another windows, but in any new 
window I am opening, this particular is instance is showing as 

    Connected to Idle Instance.

    Can anyone tell me what could have gone wrong here? It was working fine and 
I have not done any other installation in recent past.

    Nothing is showing in Alert log files too, as the same instance is running 
in other window.
