That error may mean two things: 1- Do you have Java installed? You probably got one for Eclipse. If not, get the latest from java.sun.com.
2- If you have java installed, it's not in the path by default. To fix #2: - open Control Panel > System, - Advanced tab - Environment Variables button at the bottom - Add the JRE bin to the path, e.g. edit the "path" variable to add something like this at the end: ;C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_07\bin - Say OK tons of time - Re-open your command prompt and try again.
