Guest Eran Karu Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 I have a CD of Service Pack 3 and Microsoft JVM Removal Tool 1.0a as well. I plan to make clean install of Windows XP Service Pack 1 soon (Microsoft JVM is not uninstalled yet.) Then I will install Service Pack 3. However, I wonder whether Microsoft Java Virtual Machine will be uninstalled after Service Pack 3 installed. If it will not be uninstalled, should I use Microsoft JVM Removal Tool to uninstall it after Service Pack 3 installed? Or, should I better do it before Service Pack 3 installed? -- Thanks, Eran Karu

Is that Service Pack 1 or 1a ? 1a does not include the MSJVM. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813926 > To determine if you are running the Microsoft VM, follow these steps: > 1.

IF this is indeed SP1 then the MSJVM will be installed along with XP. Applying SP3 to it will *not* remove the MSJVM. MS can *not* include their JVM in any of their current software but are not under any court order to remove it from software previously released before said court order.
