Friends ,
Recently I upgraded my operating system from windows xp Proffesional
to XP Service Pack 3.Now when i am trying to load oracle xpress edition it gives a warning message that "insufficient physical memory".What should i do?

[techguru]

try this ...

go to services and change Oracle Services from automatic to manual...

reboot your PC , leave it for few mins until all other services starts , then go to services, start Oracle processes one by one ...

How much memory do you have ... ?

did you try increasing paging file size ?

Thanks,

The thing is oracle xpress is not even getting loaded. My system configurations are 250 mb ram with 80gb hard disk. I donno what is meant by paging file size.

Hi,
Decrease the sga size in init.ora. And check other parameters that effect SGA.


Then start the DB.

Hope it helps.

In order to install 10g Exp edition u must increase the memory space of the
target disk to approx 4GB .Therfor install it on E:\ or D:\ drive making its space larger. After you have installed that then u can use the space of the disk.
