    Help!!! Can't install JVM

    JVM as in Java Virtual Machine


    I used the one I have used for the last many times of reinstalling of Windows, but this time it just doesn't work...
    ...when starting the installation, it all works as normal... I press 'next' blahblahblah, get the 'installation success' msg and press ok, restart computer... but nothing happens when I run a website with java-code (As it should)

    Anyone who's got any idea what's wrong here?

    Btw, I just formatted my HD yesterday, and reinstalled Windows XP just after, so it's a fresh install I'm working on here...

    You have turned it on in your Internet preferences? Sorry, that's all I can think it might be...

      ADG,

      How about throwing it all away and buying a new computer that actually works?

        Cruddy >> Yes I have

        Monk >> All parts of the computer (Except for the HD's) are less than a year old... and I can't afford buying a new computer

          Go into your Control Panel and look for the Java Plug In option, make sure the Internet Explorer plugin is turned on.

            Is that the one where you have to change your windows path?
            ( or was that the javac compiler, hmm, can't remember)

              Asher >> That's the problem... it doesn't install it, therefore you can't find it in control panel (There's no folder for in program files either)

              Alva >> No, it's supposed to do it yourself... I've used it tons of times before and has always worked, so the file is ok...

                  When installing JVM, how do you guys usually do it?
                  Do you use the file called msjavx86.exe

                    Not. I install the SUN JDK that includes a virtual machine. I get it from SUN's site.

                        Click on the "free download" link. Just going straight to http://www.java.com/en/download/windows_automatic.jsp should work, too, but I didn't bother to test if it really does...

                            I installed it and it works on some sites... but for some reason it doesn't work on this one:

                            Does it work by you? It should work... it worked before I formatted my HD... don't see any reason why it suddenly should stop working
