I've got 8.1.7 running fine on a Celeron (P3?) with Win2k. I just did a install out-of-the-box and it ran fine. You might run the task manager and observe what's running on the system as you install.

Just my $0.02.

Cheers,
Mike

I know there have been issues installing 9i on P4 boxes, but does anyone know why I would not be able to start the 8.1.7 Oracle Installer on W2K after getting the initial splash screen? The splash screen disappears and after a few seconds, the CD drive winds down.

The 8.1.5 CD I have works OK. The installer starts normally.

I know the hardware and the CD media I'm using are good, as they work OK with other media / devices.

I'm wondering if I need to upgrade or change the Java Environment on this box?

cheers
David McVeigh
