i dowloaded the java compiler we use in college but it does not work, it said something to do with not supporting my processor, amd 2800+ 64bit, anybody else have this problem?

Download the Windows JDK from here for Java 1.5* Update 1, or the 1.4.2SEJDK here.

What was the name of the file you downloaded?

Installation Notes J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Windows (64-bit AMD) indicates that you have to download jre-1_5_0_<version>-windows-amd64.exe.
These seem to be the install instructions if you are using 64 bit Windows.

download an older version of the java SDK....

If you don't have a 64 bit processor, DON'T download the 64 bit edition... Use the Download JDK link under the link that offers the bundle pack with Netbeans (assuming you have an IDE to use).

i have a 64bit, i dont tink older versions are compatible either

You have a 64-bit processor, but do you have a 64-bit OS? If not, and it's just regular Windows XP/2K you're using, then you want jdk-1_5_0_01-windows-i586-p-iftw.exe. I installed it last week and it's working fine with my Athlon64.
