WARNING THIS IS A VERY URGENT ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
Java 7 is a virus! the virus alters your virus software if it doesnt know that it is a virus meaning if you haven't updated it. it was actually causing mine to not upgrade at all. after i got around it, it deleted it. i installed java 6. everything works perfectly now 100%. if u havnt updated java yet from 6 to 7 dont do it. Again Java 7 is a virus.
I got a new Windows 8 laptop in December. It has great ram and memory and everything. Minecraft was working great for it and all until the 1.5 update came out. it first gave me the error when i would force update it for 1.5 it said it couldn't update. and now it pops up this:
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Java Virtual Machine Launcher |
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| |
| ( \/ ) Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine. |
| ( /\ ) Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit. |
| |
| |
| ___________ |
| | OK | |
| |-----------------| |
| |
|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
(^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^)
(This looked way better when typing it. its supose to be the error pop up box)
and it doesn't even open up minecraft. It started when the 1.5 minecraft update came out. when 1.5 came out, that message popped up most of the time but if i either rebooted the computer or after many times trying to open up minecraft i would maybe get lucky and it open, but it still didn't update. i borrowed my friends .minecraft file and that's how i got 1.5 but the JVML error kept popping up. when 1.5.1 came out i cant get minecraft to open what so ever. iv tried uninstalling and re-installing minecraft many times. same thing every time. Iv tried using different launchers, i.e. Technic launcher - vanila, to do it and same problem. Iv even tried to launch tekkit or technic or even voltz and same problem. Iv tried to play it in the browser mode at minecraft.net and the cant update error pops up. iv tried uninstalling and re-installing java many many time. same problems. i don't know what to do. iv checked to see if there are any viruses and there are none at all.
This is not an upgraded windows 7 to windows 8 laptop. this laptop came with windows 8 from factory.
Anyone can help me please?
