I had a 'few' emails on this so I'll list the steps here. Please note these are for our env (1157, NT Adv Srvr). We use a DR drive (operating system with ALL needed 3rd party apps / settings & no Oracle users. When rebuilding we like to keep the registry clean and the OUI fresh.
1. Replace, with a prebuilt DR drive, the op sys. (ie no Oracle users, no Reg conflicts, no software to de-install, system/winnt32 file potential problems, no OUI issues). Note the OUI needs to de-install Oracle installs, doing so via the registry will corrupt the OUI....
2. Delete ALL data files
3. reboot
Done.
Before we used an op sys DR drive we had to delete via OUI (if u did not delete the user), then update/mod the registry (FYI, the HKLM\SYSTEM\Constrolset 001,2 is NOT updatable causing registry to grow)
