Universal Installer/JREW Error

Hi Everyone:

Dont know a thing about Oracle, but trying to learn. I downloaded 8i Personal (for 98) and when I try to set it up it calls the Universal Installer, but I get an illegal operation error that references JREW. I went to www.javasoft and downloaded JRE 1.1.8 and installed it to its own directory. I did this because when I tried to click on one of the setup files in Explorer it told me I needed JRE 1.1.6 at least. I still am getting the "JREW illegal operation error".

I also have heard that the Universal Installer needs 256Mb Ram and 1 Gb HD space to run, but 8i itself will run with just 96 megs. . I just found out that this could be my problem. I am running AMD 333, 96MB Ram, 4.3 Gb etc. If this is my problem is there a way to install 8i by bypassing the Universal Installer?

Thank you in advance!
