Hi everyone, this is my firts forum post =D. Ok, let's get to the point. Whenever i try to open SK, i get the error in the subject. I got it the first time yesterday, and i fixed it updating my video card drivers. Today i got this error agan. I have Win7, and i have the lastest version of Java installed.
Thanks in advance,

I agree, best way to do what d0gr0ck says is taking the following steps (it might take a while but believe me, worth taking your time):
- uninstall Java completely (if you have windows 7 I am wondering if you have the 32 or 64bit version, if you have the 64bit win7 and you did install java 64bit also, then please uninstall that one first and then the 32bit version)
- check manually in program files that nothing of files was left behind. ( easiest way to be sure is useage of a free program called Ccleaner, run the cleanup and do the registry cleanup too)
- do a reboot ( sounds stupid but trust me on this one)
- reinstall first Java 32bit (afterwards open like internet explorer 64bit, go back to java.com and download the 64bit version too)
done.
If you got any problems occuring, please let me know. 9 out of 10 i think you have a 64bit windows 7 and you never installed the Java 64bit version. (But I could be wrong, please give some more info on your hardware and OS)
Thanks for your answers
I have the 32 bit version of win7, and i tryed doing everything you wrote, but i'm still getting this error. I dont get it everytime, but it's pretty annoying. Also, I noticed something: when SK doesnt work, all the java-based games won't work properly (i get 1FPS).
I have this issue, not consistently, but once it happens it continues to happen until I close Firefox. Then the game/Java runs just fine and continues to do so if I reopen Firefox once the game is going. Maybe there is some Java resource that isn't properly freed or shared?

You could take the Java a bit farther and do a full uninstall of it. I think when Java updates it only modifies the necessary files, if another file has gone wonky then a simple update may not fix a problem.
