Ok, at the risk of being flamed, how the heck does one get around this problem? I've spent about 4 hours doing google searches, reading messages in the oracle forum at oracle.com and reading messages here.

I've got a P-II 366 with 256 mb ram and 10 gig HD (it's a test system) running Windows 2000 Advanced Server with SP 3. It is a brand new installation and I can't get Oracle 9i x86 just downloaded from oracle no more than 2 weeks ago.

I've tried copying the install disks to the hard drive.
I've tried renaming the symcjit.dll files (all of them).
I've made sure that all the files are not read only (since they came off of

the CD-R)
I've tried downloading various versions of the JRE (from 1.1.8 to 1.4) I've read the installation .PDF included on the CD.

I'm about ready to go out and kill a chicken as a sacrifice! I have a Windows 2000 Pro workstation and it acts the same way.

So what else is there? I see this error message being complained about all over the place on google, oracle.com and here.

Thanks for any help anyone can give me.
