Can't install JDK 5.0 on Windows

I'm trying to install Java 5.0 on my Windows NT Workstation 4.0 box, but I can't get the installer to work. If I try the combined Netbeans 4.0 beta 2 and JDK 5.0 installer, it installs Netbeans fine, but then stops and complains that there "may have been an error installing" JDK 5.0 and tells me to look in install.log. Unfortunately, it hasn't created an install.log file.
If I try the separate Windows Offline installer for JDK 5.0, I get the splash screen and the harddisk rattles a while, but then I get a dialog asking me where it can find the "Java 2 SDK, SE v1.5.0.msi" file. I can't find that file anywhere so I have no choice but to click Cancel.
What's going on? Is there some installer-less version of the JDK somewhere which I can use? Can I cause the installer to run correctly?

I had a similar experience with both the JRE 5.0 and JDK 5.0 installations on my machine with Windows XP service pack 2. The installations would start coping files and installing. Near the end of the installation, the installation would just freeze. I brought up Windows Task Manager and noticed a java process was running and not taking up any CPU time. I tried but could not kill this java process. I tried to shutdown down my computer, but in the end I had hit the off button my case.
I uninstalled the JDK and tried again. Once again the installation freezed right when it started a java processes. From the command line I then tried java -version. Nothing happened and the command would not return. I brought up another command window and tried again. Same result. Now I had three java processes in the Windows Task Manager. I tried to "end process" all three java processes, but they would just remain the Windows Task Manger. All three could not be killed. Once again I had to turn my computer off (Shutdown didn't work again, it would just freeze).
After rebooting I was able to run java -version and get "1.5.0". It seems that whatever the installation did before starting the java process was enough for me to use java 5. What does the installation spawned java processes do?
I tried several things to get the installation to run all the way through. I cleaned my PATH and other environment variables, I tried stopping all unnecessary processes and services. Everytime I ran the installation I got the same results.
Here are the steps I had to take on my computer to install j2sdk 5.
1. Install JDK 5.0.
2. Watch for java process in Windows Task Manager.
3. Turn off and then turn on the computer.
4. Install JRE 5.0
5. Watch for java process in Windows Task Manager.
6. Turn off and then turn on the computer.

  • Can I install an OEM version of Windows 7 on my Mac?

    I am completely unfamiliar with windows terminology. I ordered a copy of Windows 7 64-bit and when it came it said OEM on it and had all these warnings that it had to be preinstalled on a computer and I assumed it was like the software that comes with a Mac that you can only install on that one machine. I returned it unopened because I was afraid it wouldn't work. Since then I've read on these boards that OEM is a system builder, and it's cheaper, which is why I got it, and can only be used on one machine. But it sounds like I could install it on one Mac. I don't really care about installing it on more than one machine. So my question is, is that correct? can I install an OEM version of Windows 7 on one Mac? I wanted to check, because although it's cheaper, it's still almost $100 and I didn't want to waste that if I opened it and it didn't work. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. I plan to use parallels by the way, but I am posting on this board because it was suggested that you folks know the most about windows.

  • Can't install Acrobat 9 Pro on Windows XP Home Ed V2002 SP3

    Newbie hozer can't install Acrobat 9 Pro on Windows XP Home Ed V2002 SP4.  At end of install via CD it hangs restarting Print Spooler (spooler) and Windows Image Acquisition (stisvc) services, err 1920, and all I can do is click Cancel and it uninstalls the whole dad gum thing.  I tried kb.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403613.html.  Not fixing it.
    If I could change the permissions on those services maybe that would help but I can't do it, I don't have a login with enough permissions, I guess...
    So after the third time I just hard-crashed the hard drive when it got to the last ("can't start Windows Image Acquisition", cancel/retry) window and I did end up with the files on the HDD but... they won't install or delete now.  I'm infested.  Try to install in Normal or Vega mode, it now pops up a filled in userid/serial number box, and when you click ok or retype it, it says the s/n is invalid.  I keep having to reboot to get Windows Installer to let me start it (another permissions problem).  So I'm stuck. UpToDateTrendMicro doesn't find any evil doers...  the kb403613 sent me to this forum,
    with hopes,
    M3/   [that's MEL, or as close as the ScreenNameBouncer would let me get]

    Not sure it will help, but try it when logged in as the administrator and with anti-virus turned off. As far as error numbers, must of us have no clue (there seems to be a list at Adobe, but we don't work there.

  • Can we install oracle 10g database on Windows Vista Home Edition?

    Can we install oracle 10g database on Windows Vista Home Edition?

    You didn't specify which Oracle10 Edition.
    In the case of SE/SE one/EE, with a paid license Supported has a mean impact on production environments with paid licenses, since you wouldn't run on an unsupported platform facing the risk of being left without technical support from Oracle in case of an emerging issue.
    For the XE Edition, this is not a certified combination, since the only certified editions are the Business, Enterprise, and the Ultimate editions, but you can try it, you don't have nothing to loose, supported, certified vs. unsupported in this case makes no difference since this XE is not supported either way (no patchsets, no bug fixes, no technical support from metalink), just an AS IS free software.
    On the license agreement terms displayed when you download the XE software it states:
    "No Technical Support
    Our technical support organization will not provide technical support, phone support, or updates to you for the programs licensed under this agreement."
    and
    "THE PROGRAMS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE FURTHER DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE."
    In case someone would be able to win a trial against oracle due to damage from the use of this software, the amount paid at maximum is 1,000.00 USD, not enough to even pay the lawyer's lunches.
    For the XE users the primary source of 'kind of support' is the oracle forums, either the installation forum, the general database or the specialized XE forum.
    Of course if this is for your own personal use for learning and testing and there are no third parties you could damage by doing this and if you don't have a paid license for this installation you may try it, but don't expect the Enterprise Manager to behave as defined by the manual, most of it won't work since the Home Edition doesn't have the privileges required for EM to work.
    If this is your personal computer and when you bought it the computer provider installed from factory Home Edition, and if you want something to work there, you can try to install a Virtual Machine and install Oracle 10g on a supported guest OS.

  • Can't install BT NetProtect Plus on Windows 7 Prof...

    I can't install BT NetProtect Plus on Windows 7 Professional 64 bit with IE9 after my 12 month free McAfee package exspired. It seems to have uninstalled the free version by stops after I press the "I agree" button in response the licensing question. All that's shown on blank window arethe BTY and McAfee logos Have tried the following: - uninstalling Firefox (including No Script add in) - restoring system to a time before the free McAfee exspired - checked Scripting of Java Applets ins enabled - pop up blocker is disabled - pressed Compatibilty Button on address bar When trying to submit feedback to a FAQ I noticed a "Javascript:void(0)" error and couldn't submit it.Likewise, when I tried to spel lcheck the first version of this post, I lost it all with an error. I've exhausted my own attempts and would appreciate some advise on what to try next.

    I solved the problem by installing an alternative security software product, uninstalling IE9 and going back to IE8. For some reason javascript wasn't working in IE9 despite being enabled in the security settings.
    Uninstalling the free version of McAfee seemed to have screwed up javascript in IE9 which then prevented BT Netprotect from installing.

  • Can I install both mac os and Windows 7 on MacBook Pro?

    Can I install both mac os and Windows 7 on MacBook Pro?
    I saw Windows XP picture on this website. And I would like to try mac os while using Windows 7.
    And does Windows 7 on MacBook Pro support high quality game experience? Im sick and tired of reducing to low quality graphics to play some nice games such as GTA 4 and new released games. Hope I can play games with high quality.

    If you have a brand new MacBook Pro or have installed Lion on an older one, you can only instal Windows 7 on Boot Camp (for some reason you can't use Vista or earlier). If you have a Windows 7 CD and a license, it's pretty easy to do via Boot Camp. See here for instructions: http://support.apple.com/manuals/#macos
    If you install via Boot Camp, Windows 7 will run as fast as your computer is. Generally, MacBook Pros are very fast laptops, so you should be pretty good. That being said, just like any laptop, if it's a cheaper MacBook Pro, you won't have access to as capable graphics processing as more high-end machines. So if it's a newer game with crazy impressive graphics, you will likely not be able to tap into the highest settings on the game on any laptop.

    Try to use Chkdsk tool to check if it could fix this issue:
    1.   
    Type cmd in the Start Search box, right-click cmd.exe in the Programs list, and then click Run as administrator.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click Continue.
    2.   
    At a command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:
    Chkdsk /R X:
    In this command, X: is a placeholder that represents the drive letter of the volume that you want to check.
    3.   
    Press Y when you are prompted to check the disk the next time that the system restarts.
    4.   
    Close all applications, and then restart.
    Meanwhile, please try to download Windows 7 SP1 package and then install it to check if this issue persists.
