Oracle Database Discussions

Am installing Oracle DB 10.2.0.1 on Windows XP with 2GB RAM. Always terminates the installer with the following error. The only problem (dont think it is related) I had long before this error comes up is that it complains that that I have a dynamic IP, which I had ignored.

Any help is appreciated...
