Hi

I have just downloaded and installed Sun Java from java.com: Java + You (picked the 64 bit version), but it doesn't load when an internet page is trying to use it.

I have disabled UAC and have administrative rights.

Any suggestions to make it work?

Thanks.

Hi woodward,

If you are using a 32bit browser you need the 32bit java

This is the easiest way to update (or install Java)

Updating Java:

• Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6.
• Scroll down to where it says "Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u12 allows end-users to run Java applications".
• Click the "Download" button to the right.
• Check the box that says: "Accept License Agreement".
• The page will refresh.
• Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation with or without Multi-language and save to your desktop.
• Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
• Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on Add/Remove or Programs and Features and remove all older versions of Java.
• Check any item with Java Runtime Environment (JRE or J2SE) in the name.
• Click the Remove or Change/Remove button.
• Repeat as many times as necessary to remove each Java versions.
• Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
• Then from your desktop double-click on jre-6u12-windows-i586-p.exe to install the newest version.

There is x86 & x64 Java

Can you install both on your system?

No x86 for x86, x64 for x64

You can install both x86 and x64 if you have 64 bit if you like. They will merge into one Java Control panel in the Control Panel, but install separately. Meaning both will be available in Programs and Features to uninstall when the next update comes along.

I didn't know that (and I call myself a Java Programmer)

What would be a benefit of having x86 and x64 versions on a x64 platform?

I can forsee none but I could be wrong
