Bruno, You should be fine. I have a PII-266 with 128MB of RAM, running NT4 +SP3 and I run all of these concurrently - Oracle 7.3.3 - Informix OWS 7.22 - Sybase Adaptive Server 11.5 - IBM UDB 5.0 - M$ SQL Server 6.5 - Sybase SQL Anywhere 5.5 They all run happily, using a combination of tcp/ip and named pipes (I'm too lazy to standardise on one). All I can suggest as a precaution is do a cold file backup of all your Oracle files just incase you need to re-install Oracle. Ciao Fuzzy :-)
