Windows 95 requirements


On Windows 95 JDesignerPro requires the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine for the following reason. When running the Application Builder under the Sun VM we have seen that in a short period of time the System Resources under Win 95 will quickly drop to zero. This will cause Windows 95 to crash without warning. However the Microsoft VM does not exhibit the same problem. Subsequently we insist that the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine be installed on your machine before installing JDesignerPro.

To install the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine on your system you need to do one of the following:

Install Internet Explorer 4.0

By installing MS IE 4.0 the MS Java VM is also automatically installed. The minimal or Browser Only installation is all that is required. In fact we highly recommend that you only do the Browser Only install. The installation will install Jview.exe in the Windows directory along with several zip files in the Windows\Java\Packages dir.

Or Install just the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine

If you do not want to download and install MS IE 4.0 and you already have MS IE 3.02 or later installed then you can simply download the latest MS Java VM from the following link. You must be using MS IE 3.02 or later to download and install the VM.

Note: The Microsoft Java Virtual Machine requirement is purely for Windows 95 and only for running JDesignerPro as an application from the Start Menu. When running JDesignerPro through a browser any browser that has a Java Virtual Machine is sufficient. These include Netscape 3.0 or later and Microsoft IE 3.02 or later.
