I recently installed eclipse 4.2 on my windows xp professional sp3.
whenever i try to run eclipse it crashes back to desktop on startup. It simply shows the eclipse logo for 1 second and then crashes, nothing else happens, no error message or anything.
please help me out.
my specifications are:
1.60 GHz, 504mb ram
i have an integrated intel video card of 128mb

How did you install it? You might also need more memory in your system than that.

That little memory might make things very tight.

Please copy and paste what's in your eclipse.ini file so we can see it.

Check out http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini. Also, as you've
downloaded 32-bit Eclipse, you must wire it up (see link) to a 32-bit JRE.
