not connected to ORACLE

[jadeDesign]

I'm trying to use SQL+ at home. I have ORACLE8i Enterprise Edition installed, I can get into the SQL prompt, but then it won't let me do anything. it says ERROR ar line 1: ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE. After another attempt, I get a popup box that says: The instruction at "0x60---430" referenced memory at "0x0---d24". The memory could not be "read". Click OK to terminate the program Click on CANCEL to debug the program. If I click cancel, it brings up Visual Studios and a million numbers.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix the problem?
Any help will be MOST appreciated!

Oracle 8i personal edition is good to practise in home.,
Oracle 8i enterprise edition needs more memory and diskspace

Try increasing your memory which will solve the issue

Is oracle running before you connect using sql*plus
