I have installed java development kit onto this computer, but it doesn't work when I go into the command prompt and enter that javac etc. command that should make it execute my java programs in notepad.
I'm using windows XP, but the computer that is connected to the internet does not have service pack 2 because for an unknown reason downloading service pack 2 always stops the monitor from displaying all but 16 colours. Could not having the service pack stop java working? Are there any other programs or accessories I need to download or buy apart from the free java development kit? Is there any program that can make it possible for ALL the results of my work (including pictures) to be displayed? Are there any special preliminary instructions to be entered into the command prompt?
Thank you, any help on this is very much appreciated.
