eclipse europa problem on startup

hi
i have jdk1.5.0_06 in my machine and was using eclipse 3.1 as
IDE .since i wanted to install a newer version I dloaded and installed
eclipse 3.3 in a separate folder without uninstalling the orher
version.
when i click on the eclipse.exe of the new version it loads the splash
screen and asks for the workspace dir to be set.after that however it
disappears and doesn't open the workbench.an error textfile is
created with message that Access violation is caused
this is the error msg...
'An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine:
EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x20818d78, pid=1384,
tid=160

also it gives the name of thread as
Current thread (0x008597e8): JavaThread "main" [_thread_in_native,
id=160]

is there any way around this?I am confused because i am able to work
with eclipse 3.1

pls help
