Got problem with JAVA on XP plz help.


Recommended Posts

MS Virtual Machine -

http://ftp.anadolu.edu.tr/pub/Win9x/MS%20V...va/msjavx86.exe

This is the last one before they took it offline.

(UPDATE) - Direct from the MS Knowlege Base - MS Virtual Machine

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?.../vm/dl_vm40.htm

Easier though is to get the plugin direct from SUN it runs smoother, and integrates with mozilla and other apps that need Java.

Sun XP Java Plugin -

http://dlres.java.sun.com/PluginBrowserChe...ava/others.html

Can these two ever decide to play nice.

the weird thing was is that i swear i had this installed, but when i was reinstalling openoffice today, it said no java found on the machine. so i just dl'ed the latest beta from java.sun.com and it fixed everythign up perfectly.

True..

But, come on, think the super giant of M$ could let someone else run apps well without messing over it's own people also. Keeps you dependant on them.

If you really want M$ VM 3805 (java) - just grab the secuity update dated march 4th - some security fix for VM. It contains the full version of VM.

You have to grab it from the cat though - not just a scan on winupdate.

This update was still avail as of a few days ago - I would suggest you grab and put the msjavx86.exe somewhere safe - for later use :)

It's slower ......

Most webpages are designed with I.E and Virtual Machine in mind and gives errors when used with SUN's Java only.

This isn't really SUN's fault but just the way things are.

SUN Microsystems won a courtcase against Microsoft, so they cant give you Java anymore, if you need it , go to Sun's homepage

it does not even show up on windows update for me so my only solution is Sun

i assume sun's version is to the letter, and that is why it "sucks" where as ms's is crippled, and mildly propertiry.

i would also assume that if i was sun, and i won the case, then i would make DANG sure that new users would have a great exerience with java. know what i mean?

    • Now I may not quite understand this, so someone tell me if I'm off the mark here, but does this mean they'll be potentially removing drivers for now unsupported systems, such as old processors and chipsets? In the past 15 years, Windows has been amazing at just installing on any device, and often having zero, or just a few unessential drivers missing on first install. It would be a shame for that experience to go, though I understand the reasoning, or at least their financial reasoning for it!
    • Microsoft is removing legacy drivers from Windows Update by Usama Jawad Last month, we learned that Microsoft is making major changes to the development of hardware drivers in Windows. This included the retirement of Windows Metadata and Internet Services (WMIS), along with the process for pre-production driver signing. Now, the Redmond tech firm has informed partners that it will be getting rid of old drivers in Windows Update. In what is being described as a "strategic" move to improve the security posture and compatibility of Windows, Microsoft has announced that it will be performing a cleanup of legacy drivers that are still being delivered through Windows Update. Right now, the first phase only targets drivers that already have modern replacements present in Windows Update. As a part of its cleanup process, Microsoft will expire legacy drivers so that it is not offered to any system. This expiration involves removing audience segments in the Hardware Development Center. Partners can still republish a driver that was deemed as legacy by Microsoft, but the firm may require a justification. Once the Redmond tech giant completes its first phase of this cleanup, it will give partners a six-month grace period to share any concerns. However, if no concerns are brought forward, the drivers will be permanently eradicated from Windows Update. Microsoft has emphasized that this will be a regular activity moving forward and while the current phase only targets legacy drivers with newer replacements, the next phases may expand the scope of this cleanup and remove other drivers too. That said, each time the company takes a step in this direction, it will inform partners so that there is transparency between both parties. Microsoft believes that this move will help improve the security posture of Windows and ensure that an optimized set of drivers is offered to end-users. The firm has asked partners to review their drivers in Hardware Program so that there are no unexpected surprises during this cleanup process.
    • No idea, but I had a client the other week that lost the entire drive to it. I suggested relying on the Samsung T7's instead. The Sandisk Extreme's had reliability issues too.
    • I use it every day so personally yes I need it, or rather I want it. I use OpenShell though, not the garbage modern Start Menu. I just counted and at the moment I have a total of 92 program shortcuts organized into six folders almost exactly the way I did back in Windows 95. I can get to any program I want to run very quickly. I never use Search to find or run programs.
    • I do miss the Apps view from Windows 8.1 Update.
