Re: OracleServiceSID - shutdown question

I have a similar set up to yours on NT4 but with Oracle version 8.0.4

I do not get the alert errors when I normally shut down the PC - I tend to leave my NT Oracle services well alone. I have sets them all to start automatically on PC Start up

Not sure if this helps but anyway there it is.

Regards
