So you have crossgraded from a win95 update to a win nt update. For which platform is your Personal Oracle 8? You are aware Personal Oracle 8 has never been certified on win2000 and microsofts downwards compatibility almost always leaves to be desired? Editing the stopsrc.vrf should be considered as a hack which likely will result in more problems, as you evidently can't know what is in it.
