The 6u10 version may very well run just fine on your system. The older versions combined DirectX and GDI rendering to the same surface which is prohibited on Vista (something that used to work just fine on previous Windows versions). Another thing to consider is that Java2D makes use of DirectX APIs in a slightly different way than the "typical" 3D applications like games, so we often hit less tested code paths of the drivers. You can disable the hw/os check by setting J2D_D3D_NO_HWCHECK env variable to 'true' prior to starting your application. I'm pretty sure it will work fine on your system (make sure you have the latest drivers).
