What databse I have to install for SOA11g installation on Windows platform

Question

Hi,
I want to install SOA11g on my Windows laptop. I have installed 10g XE (10.2.0.1) database. But when I tried to create the Dehyderation store using RCU tool, the error I got is like, the datasbase version will not support for this installation, however its asking to upgrade it to 10.2.0.4 version. But I didn't find any patch for XE database on windows to upgrade to the required version.
I also tried to install the 11g enterprise database, but I am not able to succede. There I have faced one issue, that using RCU tool I am not able to connect the database as a SYSDBA. So I have dropped this DB and shifted to XE. Now I have stuck with XE version problem.
Is there anybody who installed the SOA11g on the windows platform per personal usage? If so please guide me.

After this I got some more errors , I have ignored them aswell. (One I remembered is open_cursors limit was 300 suppose to be 500).
Finally I have created the entire schemas except the PORTAL CONFIGURATION everything is successful.
Thank you.
