So here's the problem. Minecraft continuously keeps crashing. I've tried adding more memory to Java. I've tried only using one version (64-Bit OR 32-Bit instead of both). You name it and I've probably tried it. I'm not very familiar with Java so, as far as I can tell, it isn't dumping any crash info into any crashlogs. I know Java USUALLY have dumps but, I don't know where they would be so I can't post them. My system Specs are in my signature except for my OS which is Windows 8 Pro 64-Bit. I know it isn't Windows 8 so please refrain from guessing at that:/. I could really use some help so PLEASE try.
Here is an image of the error:
It happens spontaneously but, a lot more frequently with FRAPS. It's almost instantaneous after a recording is started.
Any other information needed can be provided just ask and please tell me how to locate it if it isn't self explanatory Thank you!
If you are using a 64-bit machine, you would only need 64-bit java for Minecraft.
In any case it looks like a corrupted install, remove all versions of Java present on your machine. Then proceed to reinstall the latest 64-bit Java.
I originally thought the same thing but, for whatever reason, 64-Bit Java doesn't work for Chrome or any other browsers on Windows 8 because of the new UI that they've implemented. I have tried it with only the 32-Bit and only the 64-Bit present and neither option has worked. Also, Java 7U17 is the version I have and I've tried installing from the link you provided and the one from Oracle itself under the Java 7 (JRE) area as well. So unless it continues to install in a flawed manor, I highly doubt a corruption is the cause but, nevertheless thank you for the reply!

That is not it. Most modern web browsers are 32-bit, hence they can only handle and support 32-bit Java. If you want Java to work in the browsers, then you have to install both versions of Java. Installing them side-by-side has no adverse effects.
Did you try uninstalling and reinstalling? If not you should try it anyway regardless of what you think may, or may not be the issue.

Yes I have. It used to work fine and I even tried reinstalling Windows. I've probably reinstalled Java about 20 times haha.
