Java VM

I am trying to download and install Microsoft Java VM. I
downloaded a file from the site that I was trying play
games on. when I went to install it I got an error
message that it was not a win32 application.

I would like to know what Java to install and how to make
it work.

I am now using for hte first time XP for home which I had
to install a complete installation in order to get
another software to install correctly.

Thanks for your info,

Kathy

Try downloading the Sun java virtual machine www.java.com Microsoft no
longer supply their own java machine.

ANy time you get a non Windows 32 error, simply means a
required file within the program application is missing,
and has nothing to do with vm java. Vm java useage is for
internet explorer as a plug in for the browser for java
script.

"Vm java useage is for internet explorer as a plug in for the browser for
java script"

Java and JavaScript are 2 different animals.

JavaScript is a "scripting language", which means the program reading it
interprets exactly what you write.

Java, on the other hand, is a general-purpose programming language.

Hi;

MS no longer supports the Java VM. Suggest you go to this site:
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/download.jsp then about half-way down
that page click the link to download the Sun Java Runtime ("Download JRE
5.0 Update 2 ")

Accept the license agreement, then click to download the VM for Windows
Platform,Windows Offline Installation... The file is about 15 MB.
Once the download completes, close your browser and double-click the
file you just downloaded to install it on your system.
