Re: any experiences with Oracle on Windows NT 4.0

Casey,

What's the symptom of "memory leaks" at your site? The machine slows down? self-reboot? Lockup? Or anything else?

I am running Oracle 7.3.2.2 on NT4.0 (build 1831). My machine either self-reboots or "blacks out" (i.e., the screen is black and PC no response to keyboard and mouse). Still do not know if it's an NT or an Oracle problem.

Thanks for any input.

Ken.
