You need a whole slew of 16 bit updates to connect. There are about 450 required support files amounting to 7.5MB to excute 16 bit apps on Windows 95 while connecting to an Oracle server, or connecting to Personal Oracle. None of you old Windows stuff will work very well, although I've heard rumors that some folks have figured out a method to get the old stuff working, but I've never seen it in practice.

I am afraid a call to Oracle support is in order.
