Hi Sven,

Search the web (If you wish MOS?) for a document on completely de-installing Oracle.

ISTR it's aimed at servers specifically, but will work with client installation.

Skip the bit where it says to use the Oracle de-installer first.

Possibly, if you can use a 9i/10g installation disk, you should be able to use the de-installer from within the installer? If that makes sense.
