Mikael,
I suspect there's another error being signaled which
isn't being shown. Have you tried saving the results
from DBCA as a script and executing the script
manually? That might help you diagnose the true
problem. I'd also make sure to check the
%ORACLE_HOME%\rdbms80\oradim80.log as you can get the
ORA-12203 if the services don't get created. Last,
but not least, make sure the sid has letters and
numbers only, although usually you'll get an ORA-12650
"protocol adapter error" if you use an underscore or
other unsupported characters in the sid.
HTH,
