HI Guys and Gals,

I was wondering if any of you can help me. I have created a database with Oracle 8.0.5 Enterprise edt on NT 4 SP3. on creation the scripts it generated fell over leaving an unusable database. When consulting the documentation it says to remove the database files which I have done but the NT services still exists (as expected) how do I get rid of these?????? as soon as I try and recreate the dB it says "SID already in use!"

TIA Damian Smith
