Thank You for responce, Rich!
Of course, I map network drive before install but it's not the root of the problem anyway.
Let me be more specific.

Hard drive of my NT machine has 2 partitions

C: 2GB contains system files and some other stuff (approx. 140 MB are free) E: 6GB this is the drive I'm trying to install to (4GB are free)

What I suspect might be a problem is that Oracle Installer somehow refers to C: drive and trying to put something there and my C:drive doesn't have much free space.
This is just a guess and I might be wrong.

Any suggestions?

Thank You in advance

Misha
