Re: Many Dr Watsons after installing OEM on NT 4.0 service pack 6

Yes, I had this happen to me after I installed the tuning performance pack.

I'm pretty sure the problem had to do with the fact that I neglected to shut down all Oracle services before installing the performance pack (I rushed the job and didn't remember to do it - although I know better!)

Solution? I reinstalled everything (Oracle client, then performance pack w/OEM) - then it worked. I figured it would take less time to do it over than to try to figure out the problem.

Perhaps you can ask an NT admin for help.
