Halp: Java is brokes

[Zack]

After about 8 months of being gone I finally want to try Blitz. During those 8 months, however, I have not used anything that requires Java. So today I update Java, JRE, and JDK. After everything seems all nice and updated I go download the cache and try to play Blitz. The only problem is that Java is using 100% of my CPU, making it impossible to play.

To try and fix this I have tried:

• Uninstalling and reinstalling Java.
• Manually updating Java.
• Reinstalling JDK.
• Ending every unnecessary process except Firefox and Java.
• Trying the downloadable client.
• ?
• Profit.

Nothing seems to work. Help would be appreciated.

What sort of computer you running?

And tell me some specs?

[Zack]

Well, frankly it's a POS.

HP Pavilion a720n
AMD Athlon XP 3200+ 2.20 GHz
With about 1GB of RAM.

It was capable of playing Java games the last time I tried.

Erm... Computer re-boot...?

Done several times.
If nothing works I'll just have to install an OS on my spare HD and use that. :\

It's just a bug, This happens to everyone from time to time, Just give it an hour or two then it should be working.

[Zack]

It didn't go away...

I just ended up upgrading to Windows 7.

[Pk0wnedall]

Haha, Did you go out and buy it or did you already have it?

This isn't even what he was talking about..

does it matter he solved the problem?

[Yoho]

Does matter, he hasn't even solved it, I had the same problem, I was waiting ages for the client, still did not load.

I restarted my laptop and it worked fine.

Try opening the task manager and killing the Java process using a lot of the CPU.

[Zack]

I did that, but it just made new ones that used the same amount of memory. Doesn't really matter since I have a new OS that Java runs fine on.

I just waited for Ryan to update the login system. I cleaned out other parts of my computer, but what Ryan did was the major part.

[Ry60003333]

Try the game now, I believe we fixed the 100% CPU issue.

[Sad Panda]

It's still happening to me..
