How to install an old version of JDK in windows 7?

I already have some version installed on the machine, 1.7 and 1.6.

Now I have the need to install version 1.5, but when I try to install an error occurs, speaking to uninstall the versions that I have the Java (JDK).

I have no chance because I have other applications using these versions, is there any possibility to do this without uninstalling these versions I already have ?

Thank in advance !

The JDK is a package of tools for developing Java-based software.

  1. Check your system architecture in the control panel, i.e. 32 or 64-bit.
  2. Click on C → program folder → java folder.

If there is no JDK folder present, then follow the below steps:

  1. Search in Google JDK download.
  2. Scroll to bottom, and check for the system architecture of your system.
  3. Click the download link and wait till the download is finished.
  4. In downloads click on show in folder.
  5. Click on the JDK icon and click on next until the setup process is completed.

Please find this video along with steps for JDK Install.
