1. dvm.dll do you mean jvm.dll? Thought it was just a typo at first but it's consistent through your email. 2. Try installing to a directory path without spaces, Windows is really tempermental about such things. 3. Ditch the binary installer and just download the .zip, if need be a Windows service can be easily installed using the batch file that comes with the .zip 4. Try explicitly setting your JAVA_HOME environment variable to point where you want it. One of those should set you right.
