Yeah done that. Did it again though just to be sure. Uninstalled, restarted, re-installed. Same error. Then did same for LW, uninstalled, Restarted, re-installed. No joy again.

Ok give this a try....
Right-click the Limewire icon and go to properties and change compatability setting to Windows XP or 2000, see if that makes any difference...

nope no difference, and it's already running with administrative priveleges...... Seems to be having a problem initializing the java engine... very frustrating

Far out this Vista stuff is hard to figure out....ok lets see are you running the aero thingy (sorry ) I know that people have ran into trouble with limewire and Aero...

Hi, just wondering if you d/loaded the "Windows x64 Platform - Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 6". That one doesn't work with LW. Make sure it's "Windows Platform - Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 6".

Just a suggestion, really don't know.

Not actually thought of the aero thing. Sadly no difference though

One day soon, there'll be a lw vista..... till then... p.s. I've rolled back to the basic version of LW, 4.12.11, from what i've seen, less compatability issues with this. If i can get it workin with that, i'll then try going back.

Also 6 Pac, no, got the right version of java etc....

now where's that brick wall????
