problem at installation time
Facing a very strange problem
When I insert the Oracle 9i CD-1 to install the Oracle on Win2000 server and when choose install option, after few seconds a message appears on screen i.e.
"Error writing to directory c:\pathname, please ensure that this directory is writable and have atleast 25 MB free space. Installation can not continue"
Kindly note the there is space avaiable on harddisk in GB's and it is writable. Then why this error is coming.?
Confused !!!!

Sorry for that
I thought earlier it was under different thread and to get support I posted it again under new thread.

Hi
Try to use notepad and create a small file in the C:\ folder and see wheather you have permissions..as the user trying to install oracle..
wild idea but works manytimes..did you reboot ;-)

I already tried those
I created a folder in that directory, I also rebooted the system twice, but of no use.

The event log shows
The device, \Device\CdRom0, has a bad block.
