Actually, I did change the system %PATH% through the control panel and
environment variables, but I did not re-start emacs.  After doing that,
everything works fine :)

Oh, and I'd *love* to remove the old JRE, but that's part of another
software installation (I'm working in a company), and unfortunately, I
can't just wipe that thing off my hard drive.

Anyway, issue solved :)

Thanks to all and Cheers!!
