Java VM

[Hans_Gruber]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get the default Java VM from microsoft, when i try to download msjava86 i get an error message saying it can't update newer software but java applications wont load, my windows xp already has SP1 installed from the cd as the build includes it and the sun java gives me alot of lag when playing yahoo pool and makes my desktop blink rapidly.

Remove it, and then try and install it again....

To remove:

Click start --> run --> and type this in: RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection java.inf,UnInstall

You will then get a prompt to uninstall, choose yes, and choose to reboot.

Delete the java folder in \WINDOWS.

Next go to \WINDOWS\inf\ and delete java.pnf

Delete C:\WINDOWS\system32\jview.exe and C:\WINDOWS\system32\wjview.exe

Delete: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Java VM

Delete: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AdvancedOptions\JAVA_VM (To remove the configuration options from the IE Advanced Options tab).

and then try and install it right off of the WindowsUpdate site.
