Windows XP
You may be aware that certain releases of Windows XP are equipped with a Java Virtual Machine (JVM); however, the Microsoft JVM is not 100% Java compliant and many programs will not work with it. The first two steps show you how to install the JVM provided on your course CD.
  1. Open the file j2re-1_4_1_01-windows-i586.exe on your course CD.
     
  2. This launches the Java install wizard which will guide you through the Process of installing Java on your computer.
     
  3. Move the Jython-21.class file from the course CD to your computer.
     
  4. Open a Command Prompt Window and change directories to the one that contains the Jython-21.class file.
     
  5. type:
    java Jython-21
  6. The Jython install wizard will launch. See the troubleshooting section if you encounter problems.
