Subject: Help Unistalling Oracle 8.1.6 on NT


Hi,

I must be missing something here...... I have just done the following to uninstall Oracle on my NT box:

Used the Universal Installer to De-Install software
Removed Oracle Directory
Removed Oracle Registry Key


When Installing Oracle 8.1.7, the universal installer is still seeing the OLD SIDs (though no installed components)

What reg keys is it looking at?

Thanks,

Hannah
