You've got P4 problem, I think.
It's bug 1507768.
Not only OUI is affected by this bug, but couple of other post-install tools.
Here is solution suggested by Oracle support:

  1. Create a temporary directory on your server.
  2. Copy the contents of the Oracle RDBMS Server CD to the temporary directory created in step 1.
  3. Search the directory structure created in step 1 for the existence of the filename symcjit.dll.
  4. Rename each copy of the symcjit.dll to symcjit.old.
  5. Run the setup.exe from the \install\win32 directory and install Oracle 8.1.x.
