Need help please..im at a loss (LW won't open)
 

Hello and thanks for taking the time to read this post, My limewire as been running great till this morning, The problem is when i try to start LW it just flashes on screen and then nothing,
I have looked at several posts here on the same prob and followed the instructions about re-installing java runtime (offline) and LW (offline) installer but its still the same, Since it worked no settings have changed and i done full AV scan and ad/spyware scan (non-detected)
I have even tried to system restore :( I looked in the LW folder and found a few of these hs_err_pid :confused: Here is the latest one.. P.s just checked my processes and its showing as running in there

Have you tried selecting the End Process in your task manager ??
If you haven't try that and if you still have problems try deleting your preference folder...;)

Fixes for Limewire when LW isn't operating as it should

Thanks for the reply......i have ended process and still wont start up and i have deleted limewire in C:\Documents and Settings\me\Application Data\limewire and it still just flashes on screen then nothing...the more i try the more LW`s it puts in my processes ?

Ok...make sure all the limewire processes are ended and try these fixes hopefully this will do the trick...;)
Try uninstalling your Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE offline version....(5th one down)
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp

Then uninstall Limewire using the uninstaller which is found in start > all programs > limewire...then re-install it using the offline installer...
http://www.limewire.com/english/cont...oadfree2.shtml

:( :( nope tried both off-line installers and still same :(

Hmmm...Have you tried the Java 6 ?? If not try that using the JRE offline version...4th one down...Remove the other Java before hand...
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

nope still no go :( It just flashes on then nothing but still runs in my processes (wierd) but thanks for the help :)

I just googled the error code and it seems that there's something wrong with the Java...
I would suggest going to the Java forums and asking for some help there...
Can you let us know how you get on...;)

java.net Forums : Forum **********

Cheers, I have posted a thread at java.net Forums : java error ... but have had no-reply as yet just wondering if i posted the right info ??

Thank goodness someone else is having this same problem ~ I thought I was losing my touch! The only difference is that it's not even showing in my processes. Has anyone found the solution yet?
