Oracle gives error "ora-24327: need explicit attach before authenticating a user" and dows not work

We are using oracle for an accounting software for the past 2 years.  

Suddently yesterday oracle stoped working.  

We restarted the machine, and the oracle services individually but without success.

We are executing the below command to start oracle:

set ORACLE_SID=ORCL
E:\oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1\bin\oradim.exe -startup -sid ORCL -usrpwd oracle

we get the error "ora-24327: need explicit attach before authenticating a user"

Can anyone help?

We added the SID of our dbase in the listener.ora.

Also commented out the authentication in sqlnet.ora file.
