Originally posted by stecal That is an interesting scenario, have to try that one out some time. There is a difference between installing and updating. What you are doing is updating, so you may be able to perform the upgrade. The registry values for hkey/local machine/software/oracle is already there, so that's why it may work. OUI is really "dumb" when it comes to Windows.
Can you run Start>Run>gpedit.msc? The restriction there is "Prevent user installs" (not configured or enabled).
I can't run the group policy edit. I enclosed the results. I was considering installing 9iSR2 at home with all of the options I want, loading it onto my mp3 player and bringing it to work where I can rename my Oracle Home directory and copy it over, thus giving me OEM, and the ability to go back to what I had before. And yes, OUI is dumb, I have faked it out before.
