Reading all the related stickied threads before posting (Common Problems and Fixes, Good place to start.)

Operating System (32 or 64 bit)

Version of Java (32 or 64 bit) (Up to date version is 7 for windows)

What antivirus you use

Description of Problem

Error messages or logs if they are available

Read sticky... sorta, I scimmed it. Nothing applies to me.

Operating system: 64 bit, windows 7, ultimate, pirated, no firewall, no anti-virus, no other programs give me issues, why the hell am I going into this since it's not a net error...

Version of java: 64bit AND 32bit are both installed...

C:\Users\Nicholas>java -version

java version "1.6.0_29"

Java SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_29-b11)

Java HotSpot 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.4-b02, mixed mode)

Anti virus: Like, you see, I was using one but it was gay n' shit and kept telling me stuff that I knew was a virus was a virus then deleted it and I couldn't sandboxie it so I just reinstalled windows and never installed an anti-virus again... that was like 4 years ago. I reinstall windows about once a month, I don't believe I've ever been infected.

Description of problem: Well, you see like, I double click the jar and it only allows me to choose 512MB, 1024MB or... err... 4+2 = 6, 2+1=3, 0+5=5,1+0=1, 1,536 or something MB... It once allowed me (first time I ran it) to choose from 512GB to 16GB... but now it's being gay. I tried assigning the amount in the launcher.properties... it works (Hey, what do you know?) but then your program feels it has the right to just delete my setting and re-assign 1GB... I also tried making the file readonly, but then it just took off that flag and edited it again, which, I find rude.

Error message: "Minecraft has like run out of memory because like, you're only like using 1GB and having 42 pages on TMI (or NEI or whatever you use) is enough to use up all that memory..." so... I can't open my inventory



Moar shit that I feel like including because you want moar inf0rmation:



%path% for the system (obviously has ; instead of \r\n, but, I edited it to make it easier for you. Aren't I nice?):

C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common

%SystemRoot%\system32

%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem

%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\

C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin

C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\

C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin

c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\

c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\

c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\

%path% for my user:

C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenVPN\bin

Java related shit installed starting with 32 bit:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_01

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_02

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6

WOULD HAVE IMAGE HERE BUT MIN.US IS BEING GAY.

sorry, I had a solution for you but I was so busy having sex with other men, including the launcher, that I forgot. guess I am just too gay to help.

Diagnosis: Drop-down box limited to 1.5 gigs indicates running in 32-bit Java. Whatever you're doing launching it, it's not launching in 64-bit Java. I suggest uninstalling 32-bit Java entirely and trying again.

However, I have both 32 and 64 bit installed on Windows 7, and I do not have this issue. Control Panel -> Java environment variable shows Program Files (not x86), and my drop-down box goes all the way.

No matter what you want to think, you're launching it into 32-bit.

now that I'm done with bruce and dan, I remembered that you might also want to try running the .jar directly with the version of java you want it to use, just to make sure.
