NT 4.0, SP3. 114Mb RAM

I have successfully installed the 8i-software (minimal) without createing a database. When I afterwards use the Database Configuration Assistant I get problems. I have tried different; typical database and custom database, short SIDs and long SIDs. What happens is that when the assistant starts to create the database I get: ORA-12570:TNS:error reading package and (if I ignore this) ORA-12571:TNS:error writing package when it is creating database files.
I have the OracleORA_HOMETNSListener-service started and also the OracleServiceSID gets started.
My tnsnames.ora, sqlnet.ora and listener.ora follows as I can't see anything wrong in them (maybe you can...):

# D:\ORANT\NETWORK\ADMIN\LISTENER.ORA Configuration File:d:\orant\NETWORK\ADMIN\listener.ora # Generated by Oracle Net8 Assistant

LISTENER =
  (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =

        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC0))
      )


      (ADDRESS_LIST =


        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = nh900542)(PORT = 1521))
      )

    )
    (DESCRIPTION =
(PROTOCOL_STACK =

        (PRESENTATION = GIOP)
        (SESSION = RAW)
      )


      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = nh900542)(PORT = 2481))

    )
  )

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = d:\orant)
(PROGRAM = extproc)

    )
    (SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = orcl.nh900542)
(ORACLE_HOME = d:\orant)
(SID_NAME = orcl)

    )
  )

# D:\ORANT\NETWORK\ADMIN\SQLNET.ORA Configuration File:d:\orant\NETWORK\ADMIN\sqlnet.ora

NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN = storebrand.no

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS) # D:\ORANT\NETWORK\ADMIN\TNSNAMES.ORA Configuration File:d:\orant\NETWORK\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora # Generated by Oracle Net8 Assistant

NET1.STOREBRAND.NO =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = nh900542)(PORT = 1521))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = ORCL)
(GLOBAL_NAME = orcl.nh900542)

    )
  )

Thanks for any help...
