All you need to do is defined in the migration documentation, available on technet or inside the installation documentation for your 8.1.7 release and on many other places also. Install oracle 8.1.7 64 bit on your new host, shut down and take a cold backup from your existing db and copy it to the new location. Run the script necessary to change the wordsize (description in the documentation) and patch your 8.1.7 db to 8.1.7.3 or 8.1.7.4 when available
