I still have the same problem...
I first thought it was JSwat and uninstalled and reinstalled JSwat and also the JDK1.4.2 numerous times. Since nothing helped, I
also uninstalled all the other JDKs/JSDKs, removed the "JavaSoft" tree under "CurrentMachine" in the windows registry and installed
1.4.1_05 - still the same problem
I then tried to run NetBeans (versioon 3.5.1, downloaded this week) and it has the same problem.
The only thing it does is show the java engine version if I add -showversion to the java engine parameters, that's it - nothing
after that. It just gets stuck. It doesnt crash but it also doesnt do anything else...

Strangely, Tomcat (4.1.12) is still running fine, no problem here, with the same JVM (the only one on my system in the meantime). It
looks like any java application that uses a GUI gets stuck... I have a fast machine (almost 2GHz, 512 MB RAM), so that should not be
an issue...

Any ideas? I'm almost about to reinstall the whole system...

Thanks,

MARK

P.S.: The exact same setup that doesnt work on my machine does work on another freshly installed XP system...
