Can I disable 10g Express Edition from starting at Windows XP boot time?

I am a student who installed 10g Express Edition on my laptop for my classes.
That is really working out great. Wonderful product.
However, I only use it a couple of times a week.
Is there a way that I can disable the automatic start up of 10g XE when I boot up my
Windows XP system? So that I am in a position to go to 'Start Database' when I want
to use the product and start it up manually? That would be great.
My laptop is maxed out at 2GB of RAM and I am trying to hold off buying a new
pc for a while.
Thanks for any help!

Thanks for all the help!
I used the Windows GUI for Component Services.
I found OracleServiceXE there set to Automatic.
I changed it to Manual.
Restarted my system.
Checked the running Processes - didn't find any Oracle named ones.
Did a Start Database. It started right up.
Then I checked my Processes and found an oracle.exe running.
So that all looks great.
I did find a couple of other services that I didn't change.
Those are:
OracleJobSchedulerXE (it was set to Disabled)
OracleMTSRecoveryService (it was set to Manual)
OracleXEClrAgent (it was set to Manual)
OracleXETNSListener (it was set to Automatic)
That was the way those were set before I made my change.
And they are still set that way.
Let me know if I need to do anything with them.
Thanks!

I have newly installed report builder . Different home was selected for Report builder and oracle. Oracle database server is also in the same machine.

Hello,
Oracle 10g XE is rather specific and, I'm not sure that you can upgrade it to 10.2.0.4 .
However, Oracle published an Upgrade Guide for Oracle Express Edition but, it's limited to *10.2.0.3*:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/server.102/b32391/toc.htm
But be careful:
Once you have upgraded to Oracle Database 10g, you cannot downgrade back to Oracle Database Express Edition.Hope this help.

How can i remove manually oracle 10g express edition from vista

hello
i use windows vista
how can i remove manually oracle 10 g express edition
please help

1. Uninstall all Oracle components using the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI).
2. Delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE key which contains registry entries for all Oracle products by using regedit.
3. Delete any references to Oracle services/components in the following registry location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/. Looks for key entries that starts with “Ora” which are obviously related to Oracle.
4. Reboot the workstation.
5. Delete the ORACLE_BASE directory. (i.e C:\Oracle)
6. Delete the C:\Program Files\Oracle directory.
7. Empty the temp directory.
8. Empty the recycle bin.
have you done this?

Hi,
10g express edition (XE) is free database version of 10g. Application Express (Apex) is already installed to it.
Apex version that comes with XE is 2.1.
You can upgrade it to version 3.2.1 witch is latest one. New version of Apex comes with some nice features like interactive reports.
If you have installed XE you are ready to go developer Apex applications and practice Oracle database

Installation error - Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

Hi - I've just tried to install Oracle Database 10g Express Edition from the Oracle website and I'm getting this error.
Error 1327 Invalid Drive: I:\ . I've googled the error but can't find much. It seems that the path is hardcoded into the msi installation package.
Anyone else seen this issue before as I'm at a loss at what to do ?
I'm wondering do I have to create an I:\ drive on my machine but that seems a little unusual
Hope someone can help
Cheers.

This problem may occur if you have used the Disk Administrator utility included in Microsoft Windows to change the drive letter of the hard disk that the operating system is installed on, for example, the C drive.
The problem occurs because the Oracle Universal Installer uses registry keys to determine the locations of certain folders that are required to install Oracle. If the drive letter of the hard disk that contains the operating system has been changed, the registry keys refer to nonexistent folders and Setup fails.
To correct this problem, use the Windows Disk Administrator program to restore the drive letter of the hard disk to its original value:
1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and click Disk Administrator.
2. Right-click the drive whose letter you want to change. On the shortcut menu, click Assign Drive Letter.
3. Select the correct drive letter from the list and click OK.
If you are prompted to quit the Disk Administrator or to restart your computer, do so. Once the computer has restarted, attempt to install again.
