I do not know what "win95 compatible version" means, but something that is 16 years old doesn't sound like it would work to me.

I use Oracle Forms Developer 6i, Win95 compatible version on Windows Xp, Windows Vista and Windows 7 and including on 64-bits architecture. I really can't understand what`s your problem. Check this things:
- ORACLE_HOME\NET80\ADMIN\TNSNAMES.ORA
- Try to connect to your database using SQLPlus: ORACLE_HOME\BIN\PLUS80W.EXE
- Have you applied any patches?
Remember that is different ORACLE_HOME for both products, for developer 6i the default name of the folder is orant adn the location is C:\orant
I have been working with patch 13 and patch 16 and works on all the os and architecture that i mention.

Maybe not for you, but he want to use it. Just because its old doesn't mean nothing: imagine someone saying that DOS is not useful just because it is old!
