Eclipse for Windows 7 64bit install Issue Error code -1

So I was having trouble installing Eclipse on my 64bit version of Windows 7. On startup I kept getting an error code of -1. The problem traced back to the fact that when you visit the sun website they only display the 64bit version of java if you are actually in a 64 bit browser. So the easy fix is to visit the site using the IE8 browser because it is the true 64 bit browser for windows. Hope that helps your install!
