In the eclipse.ini file located where the eclipse.exe is, you add:
-vm
path_to_my_1.5.0_06_JRE

Be sure put it before the -vmargs entries. -vmargs needs to be the last 
entries.

My eclise.ini file looks like this:

-debug
-consolelog
-nl
fr_CA
-vm
D:\jdks\jdk1.4.2_11\jre\bin\java.exe
-showlocation
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx300M
