I certainly have *seen* 9.2.0.8 on 64bit windows - I can't recall how the client got there. I saw it in the context of moving the database to 64bit, with much joy all around since this environment really pushed the 32bit envelope due to the number of concurrent connections. Is there a reason that you need to stay with 9.2.0.8?
