I can't get Frostwire to start... I've double clicked on the desktop icon, I've gone to start - program files - frostwire and I've also tried going to My Computer - Program Files - Frostwire - Frostwire. But nothing seems to make Frostwire start. My computer just goes whiiirrrr a little and does nothing... |

Yep, same here... I had a similar post earlier. |
frostwire not starting yep me to. frostwire looks like it is intialising then a message comes up stating that it cannot because of a possible firewall problem or a loopback problem. I have turned off my firewall and downloaded a fix for this from microsoft and it still does not work. |
Did you make sure you had the latest Java? what OS are you guys running. Did you remember to right click it and tell it to run under windows 2000? there plenty of fix's for these problems. give me info and ill help you choose the best one for you. ( Lime wire had the same problems once upon a time. and ive experienced it with frostwire as well.) |
I have the latest java but i don't have windows 2000. Do you need to have that to run frostwire? |
FW will run on 98 just fine, but since its dependent on the java runtime, if there's anything wrong with it, FW (and any other dpeendent app) will suffer. There seems to be a rash of these complaints. Wonder what's up? |
Well, while trying to solve my own Java issues, I noticed a lot of people were having problems if they also had Microsoft Java Virtual Machine installed along side Sun Java. I believe it was released on XP from 2001 to 2003, then Sun stepped in and filed a lawsuit. You can also choose whether an application opens in Virtual Machine or Sun runtime environment, though I couldn't tell you how to go about that. Sorry, I'm having serious issues with Java. I can't even open the control panel. But, you can go here: http://javatester.org/version.html ...to find out what version you're running. More information on MSJVM: http://www.microsoft.com/mscorp/java/ Yet more info on MSJVM: http://www.theeldergeek.com/java_virtual_machine.htm And, if you like, you can install MSJVM if it's not already on your PC. If anyone does this and it solves their problem, please let me know. It looks like 3rd party stuff. I'm not endorsing them... http://java-virtual-machine.net/download.html |
