Before I begin, I am using a 64 bit OS (Windows 8), 64 bit Eclipse, and what I assume to be a 64 bit JDK since I reinstalled it before this attempt. I've checked out many similar posts on SO over the past few hours, and while I think I've made some progress, none of the solutions seem to be working for me.
My error message:
