Check if in the file eclipse.ini in the base directory of Eclipse there is a line for define the JDK to use to launch Eclipse. An example of parameter definition is:

-vm
C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.8.0_31/bin/javaw.exe

You have to check the following things:

  • The path exist and it is a JDK, not an JRE.
  • Eclipse version must same of JDK: an 64bit Eclipse need an 64bit JDK, an 32bit Eclipse need a 32bit JDK.

Hope it helps.
