That fixed it! Thank you!

Sorry for the delay, here's the crash report after trying to run 1.8. I should have said when I run 1.7 I don't get a report as after pressing play at the launcher it disappears and never comes back. I've tried a fresh install and removed and reinstalled java. Thanks Ben ---- Minecraft Crash Report ---- // Hi. I'm Minecraft, and I'm a crashaholic.

Hi, I can get 1.6.4 to run but if I try 1.7.2 or 1.8 it always crashes at the installer after I press play. There aren't any mods installed. I'm trying to run it on a vista laptop (yuck!). It's previously run standard minecraft on the latest version no problem. When I tried it on my xp desktop at work I got it working with forge and then managed to get jurassic craft working so I think I've gone about it the right way. Any help would be very much appreciated by me and even more by my son who I'm trying to help! Thanks Ben
