  Step 1Download the appropriate version of the JRE from the official Oracle Java site (see Resources), choosing the Windows XP version of the JRE. When prompted, save the download file to a location on the computer.

  Step 2Install the JRE from the save location by double-clicking the program icon to launch the installation process. Click through the dialog screens, selecting the desired options. In most cases, it is best to use the default settings that the installation program presents. Click “Close” when the installation has completed.

  Step 3Test the JRE installation by opening the computer’s web browser and navigating to the official Java test applet provided on the Oracle Java site (see Resources). The applet will confirm proper installation of the JRE.
