JVM on Windows xp HELP!!!!!!

i cant enable javaVM on my windows xp
is there another program i can install to view java material
help please im so pc illeterate

After installing the java VM you should specify some environment variables in XP. Go to the properties of my computer to the advanced tab and then click on the environment variables button.
In the system variables click on the new button. Add a new variable called JAVA_HOME and for the value fill in the path to the install of your JRE or SDK. Also in the environment variable called path. which should already be there, add the path to the JRE/SDK and then specify the bin folder. c:\<java directory>\bin. Hope this helps. You can also go out to a command prompt and type java and you should get a list of help options. This will tell you that it is in the path and that it is working. It you are trying to run a java app and it is still not working after you varfied java is ok, then it is most likely a classpath problem which will also be in your environment variables.
And yes I would have to agree that 2000 was a lot better then XP. More stable...XP is a little faster but tends to crash more then 2000 did. As long as you are not on 95,98,or ME you are ok.:)

  • How does the JVM call Windows GDI Text functions?

    I need to find out how the JVM calls Windows GDI functions for Java running on Windows. I am a programmer at an imaging software company and we "hook" to client applications to extract information for searching and indexing. Basically what we do is tell the app to refresh itself and then we intercept the text output functions to the GDI. Recently, when trying to image enable an Oracle app (Sun JVM or bastard version thereof), we failed to capture any text output. None of the documented MS GDI text output functions are being called to display that text. Does anyone with an intimate knowledge of the workings of the JVM on a Windows platform know how this is accomplished. I currently have calls pending at Sun and Microsoft, but sometimes these forums have more info than they do. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. ([email protected])
    Jason Nix

    I would venture to say that SUN is generating its own
    text. That would be necessary in order to handle all
    of the sizing and layout management issues which
    happen in Java real time, as opposed to Windows once
    at compile time.Not likely. Font rendering is always done at runtime and it would be generally unwise to do it yourself given the availability of TrueType fonts and the highly optimized rendering engines. I would be shocked if Sun tried to do it themselves.

    Sorry, but this does not seem to be an iPad question. I'd therefore suggest you ask in the iTunes for Mac forum.

  • Can't install C:\AS10gNT_Disk1 on windows-desperated--Help .

    Can't install C:\AS10gNT_Disk1 on windows-desperated--Help .
    hello forum it seems as if i have miss understood something about installing C:\AS10gNT_Disk1,2,3.
    1: i have unziped all the 3 zip files in there respectivelly folders.
    for examples.C:\AS10gNT_Disk1\Disk1.
    i have oracle 9is db installed on my pc,
    so in a previous maill somebody adviced me, plus the installation errors showed me that i could't installed it in C:\oracle\ora92 witch is where I have oracle9is db installed.
    Then I was told that I could just give any new oracle_home and path.
    but this is not working for me.
    when I run oracle universal installation.
    destination.Then
    Enter or select an oracle home name and its full path.
    as i have to enter a different name from my previous one where oracle9isdb is installed,
    then I write
    name oracleServer,
    path c:\oracleServer when i do that i get the following errors.
    There was a problem in accesing the staging area.
    Pleased make sure the specified values for source and destiantion are valid

    Hi,
    actually I can only tell how it worked for me. I unzipped all zips into teh same directory and ended up with
    d:\stage\disk1
    d:\stage\disk2
    d:\stage\disk3
    Then I started the installer from disk 1 and follwoed all teh instructions. I did specify an Oracle Home as OracleAsInfra for the infrastructure to be in d:\OracleAsInfra and similar for teh Midtier OracleAsMidtier to be in d:\OracleAsMidtier
    The rest ran smoothly

  • Why are iTunes, View, Window, and Help menu items disabled?

    I am frequently encountering an issue in iTunes 10.5 (141) where all the menu items in the iTunes, View, Window, and Help menus are disabled (greyed out). Why is this happening and can it be stopped?
    I've seen this issue on different Mac OS X 10.7.2 machines. It seems to occur during playlist manipulation, where I'm making new playlists, adding items to them and editing them and the items. In the worst cases, I'm forced to quit and restart iTunes, although I have to quit by using the context menu option in the Dock as the Quit option is disabled in the application.
    I'd appreciate any advice on workarounds for this that don't involve quitting and restarting iTunes.

    I'm also having the same issue.  It was happening with 10.5.1 and now still with 10.5.2.  I'm using a 2008 iMac running 10.6.8.  I do not use iTunes Match.  This seems to happen for no apparent reason i/o/w, I can't determine a pattern as to when it happens, but it occurs about once in every 10 times that iTunes is open and it seems to happen after it's been open for a while, but again, no particular pattern. 
    Sometimes, all the menu items are grayed out, and other times, 70% of the menu items are grayed out.  I can still use the other functionality in iTunes, but must must Quit from the dock (it quits gracefully and no Force Quit is necessary).  Relaunching restores eveything to normal for about a week. 
    I work with technical diagnostic issues and can usually pinpoint a problem, isolate an issue, or determine a pattern, but this one has me stumped. I thought 10.5.2 might fix it, but no.  Maybe 10.5.3?

    This is not a Java problem, this is a WEBBOT problem.
    I suggest that you research the topic in your FrontPage help files.
    Yes, we do know how to solve this problem using ordinary HTML and JSP. The sample code that you've posted implies that you are looking for an extremely different solution. To put it another way, it looks like you're logging onto the Federal Aviation Administration's forums and asking them how to go from Chicago to New York by train.
    But in any case, if you can't find the information in FrontPage, I'm 100% certain that if you went to www.microsoft.com and searched for FrontPage and downloads, and skipped the results that actually want you to download FrontPage, you'll get some sample code.

    Not sure if any of the alternatives to Office (word) for Mac are near the feature set you require.
    There are a few listed here at this page, in some ways aren't exactly like Office or Word; the feature you seek may (or may not) exist. I'd try & see about neooffice compatibility...

  • Multiple JVMs in Windows

    Is there a clean way to instal Java 1.5 on a machine that already has 1.4 on Windows?
    There are at least four inconsistent ways that applications find the JVM on windows, namely:-
    JAVA_HOME (which is not set by the installers)
    PATH
    system32\java.exe
    registry keys
    magic hard coded values.
    This results in trouble and insconsistencies.
    I just hack things but is there some utility that does a "make jvmXXX the default".
    Fixing this is long overdue IMHO. Get rid of the registry keys, use JAVA_HOME (which is in the regstry), keep it clean.

    I always just hack things, but

    Just do a Google search for "partition hard drive windows"

    Hi !

    information about windows sdk functions ?
    Piotr

    In order to use Windows SDK files you must have CVI Full Development System, not the starter kit nor base package.
    To install SDK on your hard disk you must run Custom installation: you will be prompted for a list of all installable items in which to select the appropriate options.
    Hope this helps
