[shakti]

Through Control Panel Is The Best Way..
Bcz, It Also Clears Yor Registry

also try overwriting the install without uninstalling i.e install at the same place again without removing from add/remove programs. atleast give it a try.

btw:whats ur os??

hey i think reinstalling the oracle 9 will work out.....

[DukeNukem]

To uninstall Oracle9i Simply remove the directory where you've installed it
and remove every registry entry of it using regcleaner or similar tool
that's it


Or else

Run the Installation program again(of course of oracle 9i) and from there remove the installed items
