After step 2.) You should use Oracle installer to remove all product that
you can. You will not be able to remove Oracle Installer though, so there
will be some trash left behind in the registry, so step 4) is requeired.

Subject: Trashing Oracle.
Hi Guys,
Just wanted to double check with you guys - I am going to be trashing my NT
4, 8.0.4 test instance once I have managed to download the 8.1.6 zip from
technet over my 31,200 bps line!! Yeah - 6 years later..
Anyway, I am going to totally wipe Oracle and start over a again, and just
wanted to check on how to wipe completely -
- Shut down the instance
- oradim80 to delete all of the services (what is the command by the way?)
- Delete the Oracle directory
- Delete all mention of Oracle in my registry.
Is this the right way to do it? Should I do anything else? Also is there
anything that I should watch out for with 8.1.6 on NT 4 sp6? I only have
128mb RAM on my NT box, will that do for an empty instance? The only reason
it is there is to test tools against.. Do I need to worry about anything
else?
Cheers
Mark
