Ok I have been having issues with my java for a while now and haven't been able to get online. I was getting the message:
error: could not create the java virtual machine
error: a fatal exception has occured. program will exit
I tried reinstalling my java and it didn't help. So I tried reinstalling Minecraft but it gives me the same error message. I have looked online for help on the issue and I'm not the only person that has been having this issue but strangely nothing that has helped others works with my system. Please help and I'm not great with computers but I can get the info on my laptop if you need it to help with the issue. Again please help me.
Hey Big_Bird_Pv
Just like you, I am a new user to the forums,
I have also had problems with the JVM error
What I did to fix this is to downgrade the java version to Java 6 (I have update 25)
This brought upon me a new Error box saying "Error: could not create java virtual machine" which Is a more common problem for the launcher, all I did to fix this was to create a .bat file in the Notepad and insert this-
Java -Xmx650m -jar "C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\desktop\Minecraft.exe"
Make sure your minecraft.exe is on your desktop, and you must save the Notepad under Minecraft.bat
All you need to do now is to open that new .bat file and use it as your launcher instead of the old icon
Hope this helps!
