Remove SID

scottjhnJul 2 2005 — edited Jul 4 2005
While installing the Oracle DB 10g Standard on Windows XP, created a general purpose database orcl(name = orcl SID = orcl). Then I uninstalled the orcl database for some reason. Now I reintall the database and try to create the database with the same name of orcl. The system does not allow so. It indicates the SID orcl is in existent.

How can I delete the old SID orcl from the system?

Thanks.

Scott
