First, ensure you have Java installed and operative. Go: Start->Run. Type "cmd" and press ENTER. A black window will open. Type:

java -version

You'll see, what version of Java you have (if any). The required version is 1.5. Version 1.4 is not good for EACTS Software.

Wrong version of Java: Java 1.4 is too old.
Correct version of Java: Java 1.5.

Once you're sure that you have Java 1.5, move Eacts-7.0.10.jar file to C:\ Now open "cmd" again and type:

c:
cd \
dir

Make sure you see Eacts-7.0.10.jar on the list. If you don't see it, it means you didn't place Eacts-7.0.10.jar in C:\ and you need to do that. Once you see Eacts-7.0.10.jar on the list, type:

javaw -jar Eacts-7.0.10.jar

Your session should look like this:

Launching Eacts-7.0.10.jar in command-line.

If you can run the software only in this way, write yourself a *.bat file that will allow you to launch the software by double-clicking.
