OK, I put the Java path ahead of all other items in my PATH and still got 
the same result (I think there is no other JVM on this machine, anyway, 
but nevertheless...)

Here is the output of that dialog (copied manually :( ...):

// begin...
JVM terminated. Exit code=1
F:\j2sdk1.4.2_09\bin\javaw.exe
-Xms40m
-Xmx256m
-jar F:\eclipse\startup.jar
-os win32
-ws win32
-arch x86
-launcher F;\eclipse\eclipse.exe
-name Eclipse
-showsplash 600
-exitdata 2c8_48
-vm F:\j2sdk1.4.2_09\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xm256m
-jar F:\eclipse\startup.jar
// end...

My machine has 512 MB of physical RAM, so the -Xmx256m part should be OK.
