I'm trying to install Oracle 8i on a client but when I click NEXT on the FILE LOCATIONS window I get the error:

"Invalid staging area. There are no top level components for Windows NT available for install from this staging area."

I mean, what's all that about then?

Oracle CD's oft-times have many directories on them. You may have to chase down the correct directory.

I remember having to go through this on a win95 machine but to be 100% honest I dont remember the exact directory to point at.

Your best chance at hitting the right spot is to enable "autorun" on your CD and restarting the install. It usually picks up the correct spot after that.
