VM means Virtual Machine. It refers to the Java's runtime itself.

Can you run Processing 1.5.1 and compile programs,
or you simple can't run programs you already had compiled previously?

Sorry I can't be much help. I had no problems at all in running Processing 1.5.1.
Be it Java 6 or 7, 32 or 64 bits!

I believe Processing can even run on Java 4!

My advise is to delete the subfolder which comes w/ Processing 1.5.1.
And especially, uninstall and then install Java SE JDK of your preference.

thx for your fast answer gotoloop.

Indeed, i can't totally run any sketches with a 32bit processing version ,

even if i create a new sketch

Processing 2.0b7 still work on 64bit but 2.0b8 installed in 32bit doesn't work.

Thanks for your tips i'm gonna try it to solve my problem

Kind regards
