Hopefully the following instructions will help:

1) Create a separate folder/directory on your C: drive, e.g named "Download"

2) Download Java and LW into this new folder/directory.

3) Delete your current installation of Java and LW, remembering to delete the folders, and all that remains in them, that were created by the first installation process.

4) Reboot your PC, a cold reboot is preferable to a warm reboot.

5) Go to your new folder and start the installation process of Java from there. Java will unpack itself and create it's own new folders.

6) After Java has finished installing itself reboot your PC, Java, at this point, may ask to reboot your PC anyway.

7) Go to your new folder and start the installation process of LW from there. LW will unpack itself, create it's own new folders and integrate itself with Java.

8) After LW's installation reboot your PC, LW may ask to reboot your PC anyway.

Your new installation of LW and Java should now work without any further difficulties unless you now have to reconfigure your firewall.


Hope this helps.



UK Bob
