      I don't get this error when I am using my old laptop (I changed yesterday) and I have checked all the NLS parameter values...

        Possible reasons are

        1. An attempt was made to issue an ALTER SESSION statement with an invalid NLS parameter or value.
        2. The NLS_LANG environment variable contains an invalid language, territory, or character set.

        You can resolve this by unset the NLS_LANG environment variable

        The NLS_LANG must be unset in the Windows registry (re-named is best). Look for the NLS_LANG subkey in the registry at \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE, and rename it.
