Eclipse ADT: Java was started but returned exit code=13

Question

Could someone one clarify why my Eclipse (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html) from ADT won\'t start?

Every time I\'m getting this error:

---

A few more checks...

Ensure you remove all older versions of Java. Having multiple versions of the Java Runtime will cause this error. Also check what OS you are using. Is it 32-bit or 64-bit? You need to install the appropriate version of the Java runtime. You cannot run ADT/Eclipse on a 64 bit OS with a 32-bit Java runtime. Hope this helps.
