In the unlikely event that anyone is interested, let me record some further 
experiences:

1,  On my 64-bit desktop running Windows 7 (on which the problem occurred), I 
tried uninstalling and re-installing V2.9.2, with no success.  But uninstalling 
2.9.2 and installing V 2.8 (I had the set up saved on another machine), all 
worked out fine.  I can run V2.8 therefore without the Java error

2. But on my 32 bit laptop running Windows XP I had no problem at all ... 2.9.2 
ran fine

Quite bizarre.  And sorry, I have never got round to installing Linux ... 
always meant to try!

Hi ... I have had JabRef 2.7 on my machine for some time, no problems.

Today I checked for upgrades, down loaded JabRef 2.9.2, and installed (no 
problem reported)  But JabRef now does not start at all (either selecting from 
program files or clicking on a bib file).  The problem seems to be linked to a 
Java Runtime Environment error, the log of which is copied below.  I checked 
that I had the latest Java, but that made no difference.

I am operating Windows 7.  Any suggestions?

Hi,

this one is a bit tricky - since it's a JVM crash it's not really "supposed to 
happen". If a crash happens within our code we can debug and track it down, but 
with a JVM crash I'm not really sure where to start. Perhaps someone else has 
an idea what do do about this.
