Okay, when making the txt folder for the RAM make sure it's specified for x64 bit or x32 bit.

This is the one for 64 bit
C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe" -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.exe

This is the one for 32 bit
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe" -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.exe

wtf. I just wanna play. Why do things have to be so difficult all of a sudden? :sleep.gif:

Everyone that want's to join a 1.7.3 server have to be on 1.7.3 same thing applies to 1.8 servers.

If you wanna play on a 1.8 server download the newest minecraft_server.jar and run it on your server.

Here's the link.

Also check if your machine is 32 bit or 64 bit.

its 64 bit and nothing is working

We have the same version of minecraft. We both decided to just play 1.7.3 with still no success. I'm 64 bit.

Okay, I made a mistake on my post, use this for 64 bit

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe" -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.exe

Just make a text file named test001.txt
Paste what I gave you
Now save as Test001.bat using save as all files.
Now run test001.bat

still doesnt work lol

Okay, give me some time to figure this out.

Okay, in my research on your post, when starting the batch file the cmd prompt goes away immediately? If so, then follow these steps.
I know I've partially already explained this but, this might work and might as well try it

Now make a text file that has this in it:

@echo off
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar gui
pause

Now, save it just in case.

After that save as a .bat file by naming it anything ending with .bat (preferably Test 001.bat)and saving as a "All Files"

This will make it so you're text into a batch file. Now run the batch file you've just created. Hopefully this worked.
