Did you get the 64 bit version of java? I think if you run a 64 bit OS you need 64 bit Java.

Usually pre-bought Laptops come prepackaged with a 64bit OS

This will help to identify whether you can use 64-bit Java, and whether there are any other issues that could be causing this.

I installed 64 bit just now and I can't play Minecraft it's just not working and it has a black screen.

P.S. should i delete the 32 bit version.
