So you finally installed Oracle 10g developer suite on your Windows 7 box? Well if you already did then might have exeperienced the same crashing also!
Here is a simple work around to stop the program being crashed frequently. Before you open existing forms, make sure you are connected to the database instance. This reduces the frequency of crashing for Oracle 10g developer suite.
Hi,
Tried installing Oracle 10g database on Windows 7 Home, but it simply does not start! Do you have any workarounds for this as well?

No version of Oracle 10g is not compatible with any version Windows 7 (32/64-bit, starter,home, premium, professional,ultimate). Your best bet is to use Oracle 11g (try 32-bit if you are using any SQL IDE like Toad since they aren’t compatible with 64-bit DB versions) on Windows 7.
Read the Oracle release note for more details –

Whoops, sorry typo…I meant ‘No version of Oracle 10g is compatible’ and not ‘not compatible’.
Hi Rick
Not a single post with this blog published without testing and if any of the posts says it can be done, it is already done :)
By the way, We agree to one argument, we never had a chance to work with home editions of Windows 7, so there could be chances that the workarounds MAY not apply to those boxes.
