java_sp.dll is corrupt

NOTHING of the above works.

Try to download the Offline version from Java's site, this works.

Hit the same problem on a couple of new system builds today.  Could not get through the install for Java in Win7, but could for the Win-XP VM on the same machine using the same executable.

My workaround was to run the Java installer in an XP compatibility mode.

Go back to your download directory and right click the install program (e.g. chromeinstall-7u6.exe in my case) and select Properties from the bottom of the menu.

Select the Compatibility tab.

Check the "Run This Program in Compatibility Mode for" check box and select Windows XP (Service Pack 3) from the pull down.

Under Privilege Level, check the "Run This Program as an Administrator" box.  Then hit OK.

Run the installer program now and there should be no hang up.  Was able to run the java checker and website apps we needed them for after this method was applied.

I hope this helps.

Okay I have the same error.  My problem is I have Windows Vista.  Can you run through how to help me fix that, Donovan?
