Ade:

In case you don't know how, go to your desktop, right-click on "my computer" and make sure your set up is similar to these screenshots. When I last installed the JDK, I was impressed that the wizard set up the class path for me automatically. I guess this isn't the case with you.

p.s.
1) I use Windows XP professional, so what you see on Vista may not the same as these screenshots (I don't use Vista)

2) Forgive my photoshop "skills" - I am not much of a designer

I hope this helps.

You need to add the location of your JDK to your path.

This is what was at the system path C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_<version>\bin
This is my java file directory c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_14\bin
Could it be where the problem is i await a reply from you.
