Are you facing the same problem on 9.x or 8.1.x on WinXP? Reason I ask this is because Oracle only supports 8.1.x client on WinXP.

Did you run into any errors during installation?

Have you successfully created the database and get this error when you try to connect to it? If so then read above posts for resolution.

Please be more specific then just writing that you get this error after installation completes.
