Hi Gary,
Has he searched his entire C: drive for AMVassal.jnlp?
Is his login name Administrator? Mine is in C:\Documents and Settings\Brent
Easton\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache?
The lack of a javaws folder would indicate that he is not running Java WebStart
under that user. Does he use Web Start, or is he using a stand-alone installer?
Does he start VASSAL with a desktop icon? If so, then check the properties and
follow the trail.
Cheers,
Brent.

Yeah, unfortunately that text is needed. The defensive cards, which have little
"windows" are placed on top of the offensive cards to reveal the possible play
outcomes. Thus, I made them the size that they are for high resolution monitors
so that it could easily be read. I guess I'll just have to instruct people that
they will need to bump their heap memory allocation to 512 in order to play it,
which brings up the other question- In trying to help my brother adjust his, he
couldn't find the "AMVASSAL.jnlp" file. I asked him to make sure that he was
searching for hidden/system files and he said that he was.
I asked him to navigate to:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application
Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\javaws\http\Dwww.vassalengine.org\P80\DMws
and he said that he his goes up to:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application
Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\
and then has a folder called "javapi", not a "javaws". Is that because of an
older version of Java or is it just hidden? I don't have a "javapi" folder.
Thanks again,
GJK
