I assume you need the 64 bit Eclipse, if you *only* have a 64 bit VM.
See

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/R-3.6.1- 201009090800/index.php

and search for 64 bit in the Eclipse SDK table.

That path to jv.dll indicates you're not using a 64-bit JVM (Windows 64
places 32-bit programs in the "Program Files (x86)" directory). Use
eclipse.ini to point Eclipse to the exact JVM you want it to use, as
described in http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini

Also make sure that if you use 64-bit JVM that you've got 64-bit Eclipse.
