Java 1.3.1 on Windows 7

I'm trying to launch a Java 1.3 VM (x86) in Windows 7 (x64).

Whenever any AWT-related code is executed, the following is printed to stderr:

Assertion failed: glyph != NULL, file ../../../src/share/native/sun/awt/font/t2k/truetype.c, line 2133

In the Windows Event Log, I see:

msvcrt.dll, version: 7.0.7601.17744, time stamp: 0x4eeaf722
Exception code: 0x40000015
Fault offset: 0x0006680c
Faulting process id: 0x1bdc
Faulting application start time: 0x01cfbc7d957f19ce
Faulting application path: C:\Program_Files\Java\jdk1.3.1_28\bin\java.exe
Faulting module path: C:\windows\syswow64\msvcrt.dll
Report Id: d351babf-2870-11e4-8ed2-005056c00008

I've tried various compatibility modes for java.exe, with no luck. There's a "private" 32-bit msvcrt.dll copy under C:\Program_Files\Java\jdk1.3.1_28\jre\bin which apparently isn't used at all.

Additionally, I'm using the Classic windows theme (Aero is turned off).

Any idea how to make Java AWT operational?

Four years late posting here, but in case it helps someone, I also encountered this problem with 1.3.1_28 on Windows Vista, but 1.3.1_20 seems to work fine.
