'Illegal operation' and 'not found' on Win98

Hi,

5 times have I downloaded J2SE SDK and 5 times have I had the error message 'This program has performed an illegal operation and will be closed down' when I try to open it. Also, when I try to install FreeMind software, which requires Java 1.4, I'm told 'Java not found'.

Any ideas what's going on, or how to resolve this?

Thanx,

Mark

What's about the JRE? Can you install it? To run FreeMind the JRE should be enough, you don't need the whole SDK.

Thanks MagicMuscleMan, I'll try JRE

I tried JRE, but FreeMind will only run with Java 1.4 or higher.

It seems that unless I upgrade from Win98 I'm prohibited from running Java 1.4, and therefore FreeMind. Are any Java developers willing to fix Java 1.4 (or FreeMind, for that matter) to run on Win98.

Unfortunately, financial constraints prohibit me from upgrading windows for the forseeable future, and I need FreeMind for a project I'm working on (a project that will bring in enough dosh to upgrade my entire system - so I'm in a catch 22 situation).

Thanks in anticipation,

Mark
