This problem occurs when your java version and OS version is different, if your window version is 64 bit but u installed 32 bit java version or vise versa then u will face this kind of issue, just check both version if all versions are same then check your eclipse version.

This usually happens if you have a 32- vs. 64-bit mismatch between the installed JDK and Eclipse versions!

Your version of Eclipse is trying to access a 32-bit JDK (as indicated by C:\Program Files (x86)), but either fails because Eclipse is expecting a 64-bit JDK or because the 32-bit JDK is missing - consequently you'll need to make sure to match the Eclipse and JDK versions bit wise accordingly.

Eclipse can’t find the Java Virtual Machine

The -vm argument should be your path to java.exe, or actually javaw.exe (javaw.exe doesn't have a DOS prompt hanging around).

-vm  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe"

Make sure the bitsize matches - you need to match the bitsize of your java (32 bit in your example) and Eclipse (needs to be 32 bit, but 64 bit is available).
