    You should set ORACLE_HOME environment variable to correct Oracle version installation or use Oracle Home Switch utility in Windows.

    It should work for two similar versions (8 vs 8i or 8i vs 8i or 8 vs 8) but i'm not sure about O7 vs O8. Any way you have to change ORACLE_SID environment variable to do that so you can change ORACLE_HOME at the same time.
