It should work definitively. However, I remember having such problems as well, however unfortunately I kept no records how I resolved them.

2 things spring to mind what I tried:
- recreate the services with oradim (delete then recreate them) - create a dependency chain of the 5 instances so that only one at a

   time is startet up by the ServiceControlManager (SCM)

If there is no dependency of services, SCM tries to start them more or less in parallel which might lead to a highly overloaded machine during startup. In such cases, the instance might not respond before a timeout occurs and SCM gives up on it. It's just a shot in the dark, but perhaps it helps.
