    Oracle 9i personal on Windows ME

    I have downloaded and installed Oracle 9i on my Windows ME pc. The database
    starts up fine and I can get in to the database using Sqlplus. I also can
    access the database using Toad. I do have a few problems though. The
    database configuration assistant and the net configuration won't run. I
    click on them in Start/Programs/Oracle - OraHome90/Configuration and
    Migration Tools and nothing seems to happen. Also I can't get the installer
    to install OEM. Has anyone gotten any of these to work on Windows ME?

    P.S.
    Please don't flame with messages about Oracle not supporting Windows ME and
    telling me I should upgrade to XP. I am not about to give Bill Gates $200 so
    my printer and scanner will no longer work.

    - What version 9i?
    - Whaddayamean Won't run? Some info like 'I checked the task manager'
    'I waited for 5 minutes' would be helpful
    - Do you have the ME certified version? ;-)

      Frank, please don't sell him nonsense. You *know* there is no such
      thing like a certified version for ME.
      To the OP: I don't know why you consider hearing the plain truth as
      flaming. If you want to act like an oystrich and put your head in the
      sand, go ahead. But DON'T accuse anyone of flaming. If you want to run
      Oracle on an uncertified platform, it's up to you. But don't expect
      anyone here to help you out.
