   Installing Oracle 9 in WinXP

   Hello Everyone,   
      
   I am trying to install Oracle 9 on my Windows XP Pro laptop so I can play   
   around. I downloaded the 3 ZIP files specified on the Oracle site   
   (92010NT_Disk1.zip) and unzipped them into their respective Disk1, Disk2,   
   Disk3 folders. I then run the setup.exe in Disk1, the drive churns for 10-15   
   seconds, then nothing happens. No error messages, nothing. I've tried   
   running the autorun, I get the Splash logo with the menu, I select install   
   and the same thing happens. There's plenty of disk space (25gb) so I'm not   
   sure what I am doing wrong.

   WinXP PRO SP 1   
      
   Any ideas anyone?   
      
   Thanks
