Hi. I installed Eclipse and downloaded the JDK 1.7. After i tried starting eclipse with this it gave me an error message, which pretty much said it needed 1.6. I got 1.6 but it will still not work. I did follow the sticky note and specified the javaw.exe's location in the .ini file, but it still gives me this error.

I really hope you can help me out with this

It's not saying anything about 1.6. It is showing that you're trying to run a 64-bit Eclipse with a 32-bit Java. They both have to match being 32-bit or 64-bit.
