Ah.... thanks for that. That seems to have done the trick. But I'm not sure whether I have copied the right jvm.dll file into the path.
I have 3: ~\Java\jre1.6.0_01\bin\client - this is the one i copied ~\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\jre\bin\client ~\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\jre\bin\server Did I copy the right one? or do the all have exactly the same file but just placed in different directories?
