Yep, use 1.3. The Installshield installer does not play well with other JVMS. Basically, it has this lame design that requires that one know in advance what JVMS will be used with the installer. For details, see http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptII1.0/limitations.htm One quick hack is to start Vergil by hand: Try starting up by cd'ing to where the release is installed and starting up vergil by hand cd "c:/Program Files/Ptolemy/Ptolemy II 1.0.1" java -classpath ".;./ptolemy/ptolemy.jar;./ptolemy/vergil/vergil.jar;./lib/diva.jar" ptolemy.vergil.VergilApplication A better solution is to download the source distribution and reconfigure and recompile.
