before you try to run the installer again check if the oracle home directories are created if there are delete them,remove registry entries and start fresh.
This happened to me once before the installer would just terminate again and again at around 15% I would go and look if anything is installed the only thing I found was oracle\ora81\orainstaller.platform so I didn't do anything and tried again the same thing, finally I removed the directories, also you should look for one file named writer.lock this file is created everytime the runinstaller starts if this file is present the installer won't continue with the installation as it assumes the installer is already running.
Try finding that file and delete it, then clear up all the oracle folder and registry and try again, if you are lucky it may work!!!
Hope this helps.

What version of the Oracle Installer is this. I made an atempt to point it at my products.jar file and it didn't work.

Knarayan... I tried all those things already... thank you for the suggestions though.
Does anyone here think that reinstalling the service pack might be a good idea?

Reinstall service pack only applied to hardware change such as a new NIC. Did you check the services in your Services configuration? Any old version Oracle services there? If so, delete the service registeration. Did you try another Oracle Home?
