I am rumming Windblows ME, I instaled Java fromm the software page link, then I downloaded the JAVA COMM API and unsipped it. then I copied the COMM.JARR/JAVAX.COMM.PROPERTIES etc to the specified program folders all as instructed on the download page. then I downloaded the 2.0.2. configurator and copied the comm.jarr file to it . as far as i know i did everything correctly, keep in mind however it was all greek to me. in any case everytime i try to start the program i get a window titled
-JAVA VIRTUAL MACHINE LAUNCHER- "fatal exeption occurred. program will exit. I do not have the controller hooked up at this point. I want to use it but thus far i have spent two days pulling my hair out just trying to get the software working--rant rant rant. please help.

After installing Java, can you play one of the Java games on that page?

yes, the java does seem to work.

try this:

open a command prompt (click start, run, and enter 'cmd'; click OK)

at the command prompt enter:

java -version

What does it report back? Mine says:

c:\>java -version
java version "1.4.2_04"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_04-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_04-b05, mixed mode)

------------
Next test:

At the command prompt, change to the directory where you have the MJLJ file installed.

enter at the command prompt:

java -jar mjljTune-2.0.2.jar

any errors show up in the command window?

Have you copied the comm.jar from the java comm package into the same directory as the MJLJ Configurator.
