Are you sure you are installing as a full, unimpeded, no-cute-GP-stuff, local-admin user with full read-write-execute permissions *everywhere* on the computer?
After the install, check the devstudio.ini file in Dev-Studio's install path (typically: C:\Program Files\BMC Software\ARSystem\DeveloperStudio) and ensure its pointing to the correct java and that the java files actually exist at the path listed (64-bit java should be fine). Also, set the memory in the devstudio.ini file on the low side (-Xms256m and -Xmx512m) to troubleshoot. You can bump it up later. Here's the contents of my devstudio.ini file: -vm C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\javaw.exe -vmargs -Xms1024m -Xmx2048m If it still won't work after all that, as a last ditch effort before contacting BMC support, I would re-download the java installer (from Oracle) and the BMC installer to make sure I've got known-good installers. You should not need to uninstall anything and it should over-write itself with each install attempt. Otherwise, it's probably time to get BMC support involved...
