I have just dowloaded Processing 1.0.9 with bundled Java onto my Compaq
6910p laptop running XP SP3, English (UK). When I try and run the program I
get 'Launch4j An error occured when starting the program'. I have no
non-standard characters in my Windows username.

Thanks
Dave

k, any other clues that might give me something to go on?

What would you like to know?

I have J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 12 in my programs list.
The Jinitiator Control Panel About informs me
'Java(TM) Runtime Environmnet, Standard Edition 1.3.1.23-internal
Default Virtual Mchine Version 1.3.1_16-b06
Oracle Jinitiator 1.3.1.23'

I have many other programs installed.

hm, sounds like launch4j is picking up the older (1.3) version of java
that's installed on your system, rather than the newer release. not sure
why it's not picking up the version of java that's included with the software.
