Oracle SID already exists. Specify another SID

user530299Oct 5 2006 — edited Dec 19 2011

Hi,
I had Oracle 9idatabase installed on my system.I had to reinstall the Windows 2000 operating system on my computer. I used the Oracle 9i cd to deinstall evrything ,but when i try reinstalling it, i specify 'Oracle 9i' as SID and i get the message 'Oracle SID already exists. Specify another SID'.

What do i do? Can anyone guide me?

Thanks in advance
