If you have installed Eclipse Helios (64-bit) on Windows 7 (64-bit), make sure the correct version of java (64-bit) is installed on the computer:

If you have java installed and you get the error shown below when you try to run Eclipse chances are you have the 32-bit version of Java installed:

"Failed to load the JNI shared library "C:\Program Files(x86)…”
