Hi there,
I've the strangest thing going on. I'm trying to install Oracle XE 10g on my Windows XP machine. Here is the process that I'm using:
1-Double-click the 'OracleXE.exe' file
2- The setup process starts. I agree to the Terms, specify the target folder (C:\oraclexe). There is plenty of free space (30+gb).
3- enter a password for SYS and System
4- Use the suggested port (8081)
5 Click next. The process starts to extract & copy files. If I check the c: drive, I see a folder 'oraclexe' created.
Then the install process stops, and the 'oraclexe' folder disappears!!

Has anyone ever seen this before? Any suggestions on how to resolve it? Here is what I've tried so far (to no avail).
1- Disable ALL antivirus (was running Symantec)
2- Disable all services that I did not need

Thanks in advance
-S

You have downloaded the correct version i.e 32 or 64 bit ?
