Tom,
I started with using the installer. It appears it installed Oracle software. Of course this does nothing with the registry,services,etc. When I go back into installer it still shows some 9i installed. When I try to uninstall it insist on un-installing some oracle 8i software. I have been working in Oracle since the end of Oracle 5 and one thing is constant Oracle install/uninstall procedures SUCKS. Ok I feel a little better now,back to the problem. I found a Oracle document detailing removal or oracle software and a oracle home, followed it to the letter. Everything appears to work fine except the installer still shows some 9i software installed when I know there is not. It mus be stored elsewhere but do not know how to correct. This may cause problems if I attempt to re-install 9i. Any ideas?

I have Oracle 8i with 4 instances and Oracle 9i with 1 instance. How can I just remove all of Oracle 9i without touching Oracle 8i?
