When run on a 64-bit Windows system the NSIS script does not check the 32-bit
registry path for a JRE.

32-bit JRE registry path -->
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment" 64-bit JRE registry path --> "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Runtime
Environment"

The difference being that the 32-bit entries are off the "Wow6432Node" key.

If the installer can't find the JVM then things could go wrong.

When I install Tomcat on the 64-bit system using the wizard I had to tell the
installer the location of the 32-bit JRE. Doing a silent install fails since it can't find the JRE. I then installed the 64-bit JRE. The Tomcat installer picked that right up.

You'd have to check the nsis script to see how JVM detection is done

Where would I find the NSIS script?
