"Cannot load jvm.dll" please help solve

843804Aug 13 2003 — edited May 22 2004
Hello

I downloaded and installed the following onto windows 98 SE :

JavaSE installed @ C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2
Java2 SDK installed @ C:\Program Files\j2sdk_nb
NetBeans installed @ C:\Program Files\j2sdk_nb\netbeans3.5

When I start NetBeans using the desktop shortcut, I get IDE Alert "Cannot Load jvm.dll"

Can anyone explain to me what I have done wrong and what I have to do in order to put it right.

I found some stuff about editing 'paths to jvm.dll' but I have found 5 jvm.dll files... which one do I use?

C:\Program Files\j2sdk_nb\_jvm\jvm.dll
C:\Program Files\j2sdk_nb\_jvm\bin\classic\jvm.dll
C:\Program Files\j2sdk_nb\_jvm\bin\hotspot\jvm.dll
C:\Program Files\j2sdk_nb\_jvm\bin\server\jvm.dll
C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2\bin\client\jvm.dll

Can anyone help me get started getting started with Java?

Thank you
