But I can't find Runtime file for download on the page you gave me a link..

I would like install just Runtime because space on disk.

Thank you Mojo for very quick answer.

Is there any other chance??

from there you can get all the old versions if you like - which I do, 

since Java 6 sucks for maxMSP, apparently.

Uninstall JRE 6 updt. 1, then download and install JRE v5.

hm, i am running build 1.6.0-b105, works absolutely ok, but only if you specifiy these VM options in your max.java.config.txt:

otherwise max (at least on windows) crashes definitly on start.

max.jvm.option -Xincgc
max.jvm.option -Xms64m
max.jvm.option -Xmx256m

I had the same problem (crash) upon installing the 6 update by mistake, and micha's fix works (thanks!)!

I still get an error though in the max window upon start-up:

• error: (mxj) unknown option uncomment in max.java.config.txt.

Try doublechecking to make sure you didn't delete a semicolon somewhere, my edited TXT file with the Java changes is as follows:

; This is the config used by Max when instantiating the JVM ;

; Comments are enclosed within 2 semicolons ;

; The file format is relatively fragile so pay attention ;

; add all jars in /Users/topher/java/lib to the system classpath i.e. immutable classpath ;

; max.system.jar.dir /Users/topher/java/lib;

; add /Users/topher/foo to the system classpath i.e. immutable classpath ;

; max.system.class.dir /Users/topher/foo ;

; these next 2 are typically what you would want to use if you want additional directories ;

; add /Users/topher/myclasses to the dynamic classpath of MXJClassLoader ;

; max.dynamic.class.dir /Users/topher/myclasses ;

; add all jars in /Users/topher/myjars to the dynamic classpath of MXJClassLoader ;

;max.dynamic.jar.dir /Users/topher/myjars ;

; uncomment these options(i.e. remove surrounding semi colons ;

; in debug mode and listening for remote debugger connections ;

; on port 8074. This would enable you to interactively debug ;

; your mxj code using JDB or some other debugger which supports ;

; max.jvm.option -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8074,server=y,suspend=n ; 

; This is the config used by Max when instantiating the JVM ;
; Comments are enclosed within 2 semicolons ;

; The file format is relatively fragile so pay attention ;
; when editing this file !! ;

; add all jars in /Users/topher/java/lib to the system classpath i.e. immutable classpath ;
; max.system.jar.dir /Users/topher/java/lib;

; add /Users/topher/foo to the system classpath i.e. immutable classpath ;
; max.system.class.dir /Users/topher/foo      ;

; these next 2 are typically what you would want to use if you want additional directories ;
; added to your classpath for max ;

; add /Users/topher/myclasses to the dynamic classpath of MXJClassLoader ;
; max.dynamic.class.dir /Users/topher/myclasses ;

; add all jars in /Users/topher/myjars to the dynamic classpath of MXJClassLoader ;
;max.dynamic.jar.dir /Users/topher/myjars     ;

; specify some jvm options ;
max.jvm.option -Xincgc
max.jvm.option -Xms64m
max.jvm.option -Xmx256m

; uncomment these options(i.e. remove surrounding semi colons ;
