I haven't installed forms 4.5 in a while, but I know that when I install
8.1.5 and any forms version it was important to install Forms first and
install it into the DEFAULT_HOME and then to install Oracle 8.1.5 in another
home, the one you chose is good. I am not sure about 98, but I know that
this is the way I had to do it with NT.

Hi,
I have installed Oracle 8.1.5 Personal Edition on Windows 98. It works
fine.
Trouble came up when I tried to install Oracle Forms 4.5 on the same
machine.
I was tring to install Oracle Forms to a different home. I think I
messed my Oracle Home.
The Forms Installation failed and now, I am not able to started my
Oracle 8.1.5 which I was fine earlier.
I think I have to tweak in to the Registy, but I dont know what to do.
I would like some pointers. in this regards
I have installed Oracle 8.1.5 to this Directory - C:\Oracle\Ora81
I have also included my registry settings below ( I have included only the
relevant portion)
