Arthur,

You need to run the Oracle Installer, which should is an application that is installed on your system when you installed Personal Oracle.

From the README.TXT file for the ODBC 8.0.4.0.2 driver (as an example):

      Installation Instructions

        Once the self-extracting archive file ODBC8042.EXE has been
        exploded it will create an installable directory structure
        onto your hard drive. Run the Oracle Installer from your local
        drive and choose the From button.  Navigate to the
        /orainst/win32/install/<OS>.prd file in the patch, and
        choose 'OK'.  Then select the Oracle8 ODBC Driver product to
        Install.
