    db2javit.dll error starting Control Center (or any GUI app) with DB2 8.1 on Windows

    Hi Folks,
    I'm received this error on starting Control Center from the Start
    menu....

    db2javit.dll
    This file does not have a program associated with it for performing
    this action. Create an association in My Computer by clicking View and
    then Clicking Options.

    Here's what I've tried....

    -- installed DB2 8.1 PE
    -- installed DB2 8.1 SE
    -- installed Sun JRE 1.3.1
    -- installed Sun JRE 1.4.1
    -- installed DB2 8.1 PE custom (unchecked IBM JRE install on custom
    options).
    -- set PATH to be sqllib\bin, and JDK_PATH to be location of Sun JRE
    1.3.1, then
    tried uninstall/reinstall of DB2 8.1 PE
    -- edited db2cc.bat, adding -t option pointing to Sun JRE 1.3.1
    location of java.exe
    -- tried starting CC from command-line
    -- tried other applications from command-line & start menu. All GUI
    apps report the same error.
    - tried registering DLL.
    - tried the various setup files (located in Windows directory, root
    install directory, and issetup).
    -- tried setting db2 admin user during install to be the local
    administrator user.
    -- searched db2.log for any indication of a problem during set-up.
    None found.
    -- searched through dejanews, google, and IBM on all db2javit posts.
    Couldn't find anyone else who had this specific error.

    I think that's about it. Next, I'll try the fixpack although I don't
    hold out much hope. I have a feeling that this is an error somehow
    related to the Windows O/S.

    Other than that I'm at my wits end!

    Any help would be very much appreciated. Here's the config...

    IBM DB2 8.1 UDB (tried both PE and SE)
    Windows NT 4 sp 6

    Many thanks,
    Max
