Is it passable to install JDK on Windows XP? If YES, please, give the detail instructions what I need to do.
Thanks you.

It installed on Win2k Pro and Win2k Server just fine. There shouldn't be any problems using XP.

Go to Sun's Java web site and download the JDK.
Run the setup/install program -- reboot.

Should be in business.

I had no dificulty with installation of JDK 1.3.1 on XP Professional. The installation was no different than that I experienced in 2000 Pro or Server. I did nothing specialy, although I did choose to install to a different drive - just a personal preference, actually.

I successfully installed the JDK on my system but had to add its location to the PATH environment variable in order for my system to work properly. I did notice it made a CLASS PATH as well but had to delete it in order to run JCREATOR. I have hadno problems since.
