That's odd. I wouldn't think it would make any difference at all, until you've told CF MX to use the new JVM. Is the new JVM's location in your global PATH environment variable? If not, again, I don't see how installing the new JVM, by itself, would make any difference. You might very well have three or four JVMs installed on a single machine, all independent of each other (for example, on my laptop, I have the Microsoft VM, the VM that came with CF MX, the VM that came with JRun, and the 1.4.0_01 VM I installed myself). None of these should interfere with each other, by default.
