learn4life,

You will need a minimum CPU type 586, about IGB of RAM and at least 35GB of disk space. The application files will take up about 32 GB of disk space. Also you may need to install C++ and MKS software to prepare the windows 2000 environment before installing 11i. Please check at metalink for installation check list.

you need to check your memory can upgrade, this is very important. OS use win2000. CPU better choice P4.

thanks guys. Do I still need 1G of RAM even if I am just trying to learn on that enviroments and I won't have more than 5 users. I heard P4 has problems with the database and forms servers, is that true?

1/2 GB of RAM will still be okay.

the problem is your computer only Oracle 11i or you may will insall lots other software. I guess you don't want install this big stuff then delete it and reinstall again. is ok 512 now, but make sure you can upgrade it.

Do you guys think I should wait for the 11.5.7 CD pack when they become available. Is this release ok with Pentium4 machines because I heard the ones prior to 11.5.5 are not compatible with Pentium4 because of the IAS version
