ok, I uninstalled Java 7, and got Java 6. Then when I ran it all went well, so yeah. Thanks anyway, - Charles [Edit] It also fixed my minecraft not connecting to minecraft.net so there was something wrong with Java 7 that caused the problem.

When I tried to open the .jar, windows couldn't find a program, so I went into java, then bin then selected java.exe to run it with and then, when I do run it, I get a black window that opens some text then immediately closes.

Launcher Version: Not sure, but I downloaded it last Sunday (29th July) Operating System: Windows 7 Java Version: 1.7.0_05-b06 Antivirus Program: Zone alarm (not really an antivirus program) Description of Problem: I downloaded the Technic Launcher from the tekkit page (http://www.technicpack.net/tekkit/) and then ran the .exe, and it started ok with a small loading thing then it went to the "Technic Launcher" banner and then nothing happened. after five minutes still nothing happened and the banner was always ontop of all other windows I had open. I closed the banner by stopping the Java process in task manager eventually. Error Messages: Error Log: [17:56:55] [sEVERE] Launcher is starting....

I also get a banner freeze (it will check java and then load for about half a second the n display the "Technic Launcher" banner with the first letter of each word and the spanner blue which it will stay at on top of all other windows for at least half an hour (it still hasn't gone away)). I only use Zone Alarm and it is not blocking the technic launcher. the error message I get is: [17:56:55] [sEVERE] Launcher is starting....

Also whenever I run regular minecraft it can't connect to minecraft.net but I think that that is because I updated Java
