Thank you all very much for your replies. I was swamped today and didn't get
a chance to test out your suggestions but will first thing tomorrow and will
post a follow up.
As for implementing some form of Linux, I'm sure it would never be noticed
well at least till my contract is up and then I won't get a good reference:)

Ah, the joys of windoze. Admin Sanity lesson #5001: "What the F*&^ does
that error mean?". Answer: net helpmsg
c:\> net helpmsg 1051
A stop control has been sent to a service that other running services are
dependent on.
Mystery revealed. Check your other Oracle services on the windoze box ...
ClientCache, Cman, Cmanadmin, Agent, etc. to see which depend on the
instance's service, and stop those first. Then your 1051 error should
disappear. Once sanity has returned, swap in a copy of CentOS, RHEL or SLES
while no one's watching, and place bets to see how soon it will be noticed.
I'd say at least six months :-)
