Hi,
i've got Windows XP Home Edition on my system. The
Setup Launcher for J2RE 1.4.2 is taking a lot of
time...so i cancelled the setup. i want to know is
WindowsXP compatible with Java...and if i'm doing
something wrong
 
yes it is, you may have too many things running for the
download, either turn off a few things or wait till there
servers are not busy.

Click to expand...

That is the Sun version of Java, and it is quite OK on Windows XP. It is
however approaching a 12MB download, so it will take a long time on dial
up - something like 40 minutes on a decent connection
