You need oracle personal for 98 and not 8.1.6 EE. If you have installed personal, then go to the settings ->> control pannel -->> services and start the oracle services and the listener.

Did the install create a database on the machine? DO you see the database files created in the $ORACLE_HOME/database directory?

click on:
Start, then
Programs
Then look for anything Oracle. On my machine (Win98, Oracle Personal 8.1.6), It's called "Oracle - database_home". Just look under anything that says Oracle until you find:
Database administration, then
Start Database
Don't worry about services. That's for NT.
Once the database is started, connect by starting SQL*PLUS, and specifying one of the default names/pwd, such as:
system/manager
sys/change_on_install
internal/oracle
If you need more help, post here.
If you decide to log in using a host string (the third line on the SQL*PLUS login dialog box, you'll need to start your listener first. As long as you went through the net8 configuration during installation (you probably did whether you know it or not), all you'll need to do to start your listener is:
click:
Start, then
Run
At the run prompt, type:
lsnrctl start
and click OK.

I suspect your installation is incomplete. What happened during the install? Any errors or unplanned reboots? Did you reboot since installing?
You may know that the directory where you install Oracle is called your ORACLE_HOME. Look in:
ORACLE_HOME\admin\dbname\pfile\init.ora
For example, my Oracle_home is C:\ORADB, and my database SID (name, more or less) is kmessdev. Thus, my init.ora is found at:
C:\oradb\admin\kmessdev\pfile\init.ora
What's in it?
Here's mine:
http://home.columbus.rr.com/internetweb/oracle/init.ora
I'll check back . . .

Hi kmesser
While creating the DataBase, from CD, last step when it
is creating the database I guess my computer hangs, I guess
so, It was showing 4% complete, and then half hour no
progress on the bar, So I shutdown the computer.
My machine configuration is 64mb RAM
500MHZ, 10.2 GB Harddisk
