Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Oracle 8.1.7 client install on Win2K.
Mark,
Check "colors" in the display setting (right button over the wallpaper). Make sure it is 256 colors or higher. I remember a Java display bug that you may be hitting. Otherwise, create a run a simple java graphics program. If that fails too, then I think your display trick may be the cause.
Cheers,
Earl
