Make sure to use the offline...less chance of any corruption.

Try this way & see whether it installs & loads properly:

Install Java first. You can either update to the latest version here: Java SE Downloads
Or, if you have problems with the latest update, try this older version, which has worked well for lots of people:Archive: Download Java 2 Platform Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Update 11 (if you've already tried the latest Java, give the older version a try & see if that changes anything).
Whichever Java version you use, download the JRE offline installer & remove ALL OTHER JAVA VERSIONS (via Add/Remove Programs) before installing another one.

Next, download the LW offline installer. When you click to download & a dialog box pops up, cancel it. Now use the option to download the offline installer.

If you're still stuck, try using the 'other' installer. Click on the link below for info.
