No spfile that I know of. In looking at the startup script, it just has startup pfile=c:\yadayadayada\init.ora

Maybe your using an spfile? Login via sqlplus and type
SQL> show parameter spfile
If it shows a value then your using spfiles. So to change the number of processes you'll need to:
alter system set processes = 100 scope=spfile;
Then bounce your instance.
