Albert, use the Oracle Universal Installer (under Start/Programs/Oracle Installation Products). You'll need to be logged in as the Administrator account (or use runas on the win2k machine).

When the program opens, click on "installed products". You'll get a tree listing that will show you the exact versions installed.

There will also be log files under C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs that you could poke through if the universal installer is missing and the CD is buried under stacks of paperwork.
