Re: JRE 1.4 works, JRE 5 doesn't

The silence has been deafening...... I guess Sun believes that this has been answered on their web site and haven't responded. I think part of the problem is that they just classify this as an "Installation problem" and think the answer is the web - but it's not.

This problem, coupled with the Microsoft XML Parser problem I'm having is driving me towards reinstalling XP and see if that fixes. I think thats overkill but I've been unsuccessful in solving this problem.

I have what appears to be an original problem. I'm currently running
JRE 1.4_06. Everything works fine. However, if I upgrade to JRE 5.0
(any build), Java no longer works. I get a General Exception Error with following errors (this while trying to verify the JRE 5.0 installation at the Java site):

My system is:
- AMD Athlon64 1800+
- 1 GIG RAM
- OS is XP SP2
- Browser doesn't seem to make a difference, it's broke in both Firefox
1.0.0.1 or IE 6.0

Any ideas?
Thx
