First, increase your shared pool (SGA) in your init<SID>.ora file. shared_pool_size = 9000000 means 9MB; most of your RAM (3/4) should go here.

When installing a regular server (not a 60-day-trial license), the kernel
must be tuned. (shared memory segments etc.)

On your CD, there's a doc-directory, including several PDF's. There hints to get it work.
